Match Preview: Afrikan Kiddies vs Surprise FA

The Kwara Kiddies League returns on September 20th with a fascinating Week 14 clash as Afrikan Kiddies lock horns with Surprise FA in a game that has all the makings of a fierce battle. Kick-off is set for 9:30 a.m.

This fixture is a repeat of the final game of the first round, which ended in a goalless draw. Both sides endured a frustrating opening half of the season, struggling for consistency and managing only two wins apiece. With just 10 points each on the log, the duel presents a golden chance for one team to spark a turnaround.

Afrikan Kiddies have found goals hard to come by, scoring only four times – the joint-lowest tally in the league. Their creative sparks, Azeez Afeez and Ibrahim Olorunsola, have yet to truly ignite, but fans will be hopeful they can rise to the occasion and inspire the team to a much-needed revival.

On the other hand, Surprise FA, who finished a strong third last season, have been shadows of themselves, slumping to 12th place after conceding 12 goals while scoring just eight. The attacking duo of Basit Sakariyau and Ajao Billal will be tasked with rediscovering the sharp edge that once made Surprise a top contender.

Both sides are known for their possession-based football, which promises a clash of flair, intensity, and tactical discipline. With pride and momentum at stake, this game could well be the turning point for either team.

As the league resumes after the break, all eyes will be on this encounter – will Afrikan Kiddies finally find their scoring boots, or will Surprise FA reawaken their top-four ambitions?
