Ten matches wrapped up NPFL matchday 7 across the weekend of Saturday 3 October 2026 and Sunday 4 October 2026, one game on Saturday and nine on Sunday. Home teams dominated: seven wins, zero away wins, three draws. Away form dey really struggle this round, my people.

Kano Pillars shared the points with Sporting Lagos, Kano Pillars 1-1 Sporting Lagos at the Sani Abacha Stadium. No winner on Saturday, and the away side fit still smile for a point.

Niger Tornadoes beat Kun Khalifat FC 1-0 at the Bako Kontagora Stadium. Doma United also won at home, Doma United 1-0 Warri Wolves at the Pantami Stadium.

Bendel Insurance put four past Barau FC, Bendel Insurance 4-1 Barau FC at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium. That scoreline go hurt.

Enyimba beat Plateau United 2-0 at the Enyimba International Stadium. Inter Lagos and Katsina United shared a point too, Inter Lagos 1-1 Katsina United.

Kwara United edged Ranchers Bees 2-1 at the Kwara Sports Stadium. Enugu Rangers beat Abia Warriors 3-1 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, and that result keeps them top.

Rivers United beat Ikorodu City 2-0 at the Yakubu Gowon Stadium. Shooting Stars and Nasarawa United couldn’t break the deadlock, Shooting Stars 0-0 Nasarawa United at the Lekan Salami Stadium.

As of Monday 5 October 2026, 05:05 Lagos time, Enugu Rangers lead the NPFL table, 16 points from 7 games, 5 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss. Rivers United sit second on 15 points, 4 wins, 3 draws, 0 losses. Doma United are third on 13, Barau FC fourth on 12 despite the Bendel Insurance scoreline.

At the bottom, Warri Wolves sit eighteenth on 7 points. Inter Lagos are nineteenth on 5 points. Kun Khalifat FC prop up the table in twentieth, also on 5 points.

Bros IQ’s matchday 7 record reads 1 won, 3 lost out of 4 picks. I no go lie, this round dey rough.

The Doma United pick landed. I called Doma United to win, and Doma United beat Warri Wolves 1-0. Banker delivered there.

The Kano Pillars pick missed. I backed Kano Pillars to win, but they could only draw 1-1 with Sporting Lagos.

Barau FC was tipped to avoid defeat at Bendel Insurance, but Bendel Insurance won 4-1. That pick lost, plain and simple.

Plateau United was tipped to win or draw at Enyimba, but Enyimba won 2-0. Another loss for the coupon.

This record covers every matchday 7 fixture. No game from this round got rescheduled outside the window.
