It’s the top-of-the-table showdown this weekend in the Kwara Kiddies League as Busari FA lock horns with Unicorns FA in what promises to be a pulsating contest.
Busari FA come into this fixture sitting comfortably in 3rd place, unbeaten so far this season with 2 wins and 2 draws.
The Pakata boys have built their success around a watertight defence, conceding just 3 goals in 4 matches, making them the second-best defensive unit in the league.
Their visitors, Unicorns FA, are perched just below in 4th place, having amassed 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 defeat. But what truly sets them apart is their devastating attack — 15 goals scored in just 4 games, the most prolific in the league and the only side to have breached double figures in goals this season.
Much of that firepower is thanks to Ajibola Gidado, the league’s top scorer with 6 goals in 4 matches, whose form will be a major concern for Busari’s defence.
Historically, Unicorns FA have enjoyed a clear upper hand in this fixture. In 4 meetings across league and cup, Unicorns have won 3 times, with Busari yet to register a single victory.
Last season in the league, Unicorns edged Busari 2-0, following a goalless stalemate in the first leg on 27th July 2024. In the league cup, Unicorns thoroughly dismantled Busari with emphatic 6-0 and 3-1 wins, underlining the gulf between the two sides in those encounters.
However, this is a different Busari FA side — more compact, disciplined, and hard to break down. Their defensive resilience will be severely tested against a Unicorns team that attacks with pace and precision.
With pride, points, and a chance to climb higher on the table at stake, fans can expect an electric atmosphere and an intriguing tactical battle.
Can Busari finally break their Unicorns hoodoo and maintain their unbeaten run? Or will Unicorns’ blistering attack prove too hot to handle once again? All eyes will be on this clash of styles in what is undoubtedly the standout fixture of Week 8.
