Domestic football action in Nigeria’s second -tier league, the Nigeria National League ,NNL, is set to resume for the second stanza of the 2024/2025 season with highly anticipated fixtures.

As the most competitive league in the country, the  36 clubs will battle fiercely—some aiming for a prestigious spot in the Super 8, others fighting to maintain their league status, while some will be desperate to escape relegation.

With the Open Transfer Window allowing teams to reinforce their squads, the competition promises to be even more intense in this second half of the season. Crown FC Ogbomosho, Khun-Khalifat FC, Wikki Tourists of Bauchi, and Yobe Desert Stars of Damaturu currently lead their respective conferences, but they will face fierce opposition as the race for glory intensifies.

Beyond player acquisitions, tactical shifts will also shape the season’s outcome. Several clubs have made bold coaching changes—Solution FC parted ways with Emmanuel Deutch, Gombe United bid farewell to Bala Nikyu, Barau FC moved on from Salisu Yussuf, Gabriel Ezema left Inter Lagos.

Kada Warriors  and ABS have also undergone managerial overhauls. With Encho Anthony now leading ABS and Danlami Kwasau Umar the new coach in  Kada Warriors, the stage is set for a thrilling showdown in the league’s final stretch.

As the NNL returns with a bang, fans can expect nothing less than intense football, tactical masterstrokes, and a battle for supremacy in Nigeria’s most unpredictable league.
