Abia Warriors defender, Collins Nwoburuoke, has expressed the team’s readiness for the Oriental derby with Rangers.

The Umuahia club will take on Rangers in a midweek fixture in Enugu on Wednesday.

Nwoburuoke pointed out that the team’s defensive solidity will play a crucial role in the encounter.
"We could be drained physically because of the journey, but not mentally. We know what we want as a team, and it’s a derby, which is going to be a tough one, but trust me, the Warriors are prepared for battle,” Nwoburuoke told the club’s media.

“Given Enugu Rangers’ impressive form, Umu Chineke’s ability to maintain their defensive solidity at home will be crucial in determining the outcome of the match.

“If they can continue to shut out their opponents, they might just have a chance of upsetting the champions.

“But it won’t be an easy task, as Enugu Rangers will undoubtedly push hard to break down Umu Chineke’s defense, but we will have to keep it clean no matter the cost.”
