Plateau United demystified the league leaders, Remo Stars, with a convincing 3-1 victory in their Nigeria Premier League match on Thursday, October 17, 2024. The game, played at the Rwang Pam Stadium, saw Plateau United capitalize on their home advantage to secure a crucial win.
Remo Stars, who are currently at the top of the league with 15 points from 6 matches, were expected to dominate the game. However, Plateau United, ranked 7th in the league, had other plans. They took the initiative early in the match and managed to score three goals, outscoring the visitors who could only manage one goal in response.
This win is a significant boost for Plateau United, who have been inconsistent in their recent performances. They had suffered a 0-1 loss to Bayelsa United in their previous match, but this victory helps them regain momentum and climb the league table.
On the other hand, Remo Stars’ loss is a setback for their campaign to maintain their top position. Despite their impressive form this season, with five wins and only one defeat before this match, they were unable to overcome the determined Plateau United side.
The head-to-head statistics between the two teams show that Plateau United has won 4 out of their 8 meetings, while Remo Stars have won 3, with one match ending in a draw. This recent victory adds to Plateau United’s psychological edge over their opponents.
