Match Preview: Busari FA vs Barca Kiddies (Week 14)

Busari FA welcome high-flying Barca Kiddies in one of the standout fixtures of Week 14 in the Kwara Kiddies League.

The reverse fixture on Matchweek 13 ended in dramatic fashion, with Olanrewaju Abefe striking at the death to hand Busari FA a famous win.

That result remains one of the upsets of the season, as Barca Kiddies had been in sparkling form prior to that setback.

For Barca Kiddies, the defeat was only their third loss of the campaign, and despite being in their maiden season, they currently sit 3rd on the log and are firmly in the title conversation.

Their charge has been led by the red-hot Muritalah Azeez, whose goals have propelled the Eiyekorin side into the league’s elite bracket.

With the experience of Vincent Ajayi, Ahmed Habeeb, and Kamaldeen Soliu—all seasoned players with consistent quality over the past three years—the visitors boast the pedigree to respond strongly.

Busari FA, on the other hand, have been the surprise package this season.

After enduring relegation last year when they finished 14th, they fought their way back through the playoffs and are now making the most of their second chance. Currently sitting 9th with 12 points, they have shown impressive resilience and cohesion.

The trio of Salauhdeen Adua, Ibrahim Afolabi, and Shehu Abdulraheem will once again need to deliver standout performances if Busari are to complete a remarkable league double over Barca Kiddies.

With Barca eager to avenge their shock loss and keep pace with the title race, and Busari looking to continue their resurgence, this clash promises to be a thrilling contest.

Key Battle to Watch:

Muritalah Azeez (Barca Kiddies) vs Busari’s backline—stopping the league’s in-form forward will be crucial.

Midfield control—Busari’s hardworking midfield trio up against Barca’s experienced core could decide the tempo of the game.

What’s at Stake:

Barca Kiddies: Maintain momentum in their title chase.

Busari FA: Prove their win last week was no fluke and continue their climb up the table.
