Week 4 Match Preview between Makamz FA vs Koller FA

One of the Kwara Kiddies League’s most storied fixtures takes center stage again in Week 4, as Makamz FA locks horns with Koller FA in what will be their seventh meeting in league history.

Dubbed one of the oldest and most anticipated rivalries in the competition, this clash is expected to deliver excitement, grit, and tactical brilliance.

Head-to-Head History: Koller’s Dominance

Koller FA holds the upper hand in this historic fixture, with recent encounters heavily favoring the Oloje boys. The 2024 season saw Koller complete a double over Makamz, with back-to-back 2-0 victories, in a campaign where they finished as runners-up. That dominance will serve as a psychological advantage heading into this tie.

Form Guide: Momentum on Koller’s Side

Koller have started their 2025 campaign in strong fashion. After a 1-1 draw with debutants Barca Kiddies on opening day, they bounced back convincinglywith a 2-0 win over Solicitor FA on Matchday 2. They’ll be looking to ride that momentum as they seek to maintain their superiority over Makamz.

However, a key storyline surrounds the departure of last season’s top scorer, Tobi Adeoye, who has moved to reigning champions KFA. That leaves Abdulhamid Yunus, last season’s second-highest scorer, with the bulk of the attacking responsibility. Yunus has already opened his account for the season, and all eyes will be on him to lead the line once again.

Makamz FA: Quiet Confidence and New Blood

For Makamz, the season began with a narrow 1-0 defeat to a well-drilled Afrikan Kiddies, but they responded with a tight 1-0 win over Surprise FA. Their campaign has been built on defensive discipline and measured attacking play.

Much hope rests on their marquee signing, Mubarak Jimoh, whose arrival is expected to inject dynamism and creativity into their attack. If Jimoh can find his rhythm, Makamz could finally have the cutting edge needed to challenge their long-time rivals.

Key Battles to Watch

Abdulhamid Yunus (Koller) vs Makamz Defense – Can Yunus continue his scoring form in the absence of Adeoye?

Mubarak Jimoh (Makamz) vs Koller Midfield – Will the new signing be the difference-maker Makamz need?

What to Expect

With history, form, and rivalry all adding to the spice, this fixture promises to be one of the most intense of the week. Koller FA will aim to assert their dominance once again, while Makamz FA will be hungry to break the cycle and prove their resurgence is real.

Prediction: A tightly contested affair with goals likely at both ends. If Makamz can nullify Yunus and unlock Jimoh’s potential, an upset could be on the cards. But Koller’s experience in big games might just tip the balance.
