Super 6: No NPFL Club Will Get Undue Venue Advantage - IMC

By Admin

The Chairman of Interim Management Committee, Gbenga Elegbeleye has said that no team participating in the Super Six will get undue home advantage over other clubs.

Super Six is a competition where top three NPFL clubs from group A and group B will clash to determine the eventual winner of the 2022/23 NPFL season.

Elegbeleye during his speech early last week in Lagos said a lot of factors would be put into consideration before making the final decision on the venue for the super six.

Speaking also on the venue issue during the conference is IMC’s Head of Operations, Davidson Owumi who on his part disclosed that Lagos and Abuja have been pencilled down as provisional venues.

“We are keeping the issue of venue very close to our chest. We will look at several factors before announcing it. First and foremost, we would want to be fair to the teams in terms of neutrality. We have to consider marketing, TV friendly nature of the venue and all that,” Owumi said.

With few games left to end the regular season, teams are still justling for a place in the off-season super six.

As at week 12, Bendel Insurance, Akwa United and Remo Stars are the top three teams in group A while Lobi Stars, Rivers United and Doma are 1st, 2nd and 3rd teams in group B.
