NPFL 2025/26: Remo Stars to Begin Title Defence Against Rivers United

 


ABUJA – July 28, 2025 — Defending champions Remo Stars will kick off their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) 2025/26 campaign with a high-profile opener against former champions Rivers United. The fixture was confirmed on Monday following the official draw ceremony held in a rain-soaked Abuja.

The new NPFL season features 20 clubs playing a total of 38 games each — 19 home and 19 away — over 38 match weeks.

In order to ease logistics and enhance security, the NPFL has adopted a staggered schedule to prevent clubs from the same state from playing at home on the same weekend.

This rule affects pairings like Enyimba and Abia Warriors (Abia State) and Kano Pillars and Barau FC (Kano State), with their home games strategically rotated.

The full fixture list is expected to be released soon, setting the stage for what promises to be another thrilling season of top-tier Nigerian football.
