The stage is set for the grand climax of the 2025/2026 Nigeria Premier Football League season, as the title race, continental qualification chase, and relegation battle all go down to the final day, promising a dramatic afternoon across the country.

Rangers International lead the standings with 65 points, just one ahead of Rivers United, ensuring the championship will only be decided after the final whistle on Sunday.

Rangers are in Lagos to face Ikorodu City, who are still pushing for continental qualification, while Rivers United host Katsina United in Port Harcourt, hoping for a favour from Lagos.

At the bottom of the table, the survival battle remains equally tense.

Former champions Enyimba FC are shockingly still battling relegation ahead of their decisive clash against El-Kanemi Warriors FC, while Niger Tornadoes FC, Warri Wolves FC and several others remain trapped in survival permutations.
