Match preview

Bendel Insurance host Niger Tornadoes at Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City on 8 November 2026 at 18:00. Bendel Insurance sit 4th in the NPFL with 18 points from 11 matches, while Niger Tornadoes occupy 8th place with 16 points from the same number of games. The hosts have the stronger league position and will look to extend their advantage with a home win.

Form and H2H

Bendel Insurance ended a two-match winning run with a 1-0 defeat away to Rangers in their last outing. They have scored 18 goals and conceded 16 across their 11 league matches. Niger Tornadoes drew 0-0 with Barau FC most recently and have managed 9 goals while conceding 8 this season. Bendel Insurance's home record will be crucial in this contest, as they attempt to climb further up the table.

Best Bet

Back Bendel Insurance to win. The hosts hold a two-point advantage over Niger Tornadoes in the standings and have shown stronger attacking output with 18 goals scored compared to their visitors' 9. Home advantage at Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium should prove decisive against a Niger Tornadoes side that has drawn their last match and sit outside the top six.

Odds to Watch

Bendel Insurance are favoured to take all three points. Niger Tornadoes will need to improve their goal-scoring record if they are to trouble the hosts, having netted just 9 times in 11 matches. The visitors' defensive record of 8 goals conceded suggests they may struggle against Bendel Insurance's more prolific attack.
