Sporting Lagos vs Remo Stars: Time and where to watch the Southwest Derby

Brace yourselves for an explosive showdown as the Southwest Derby between Sporting Lagos and Remo Stars returns to set the NPFL alight on Super Sunday!

Pulse Sports Nigeria reports that this simmering local rivalry writes its next chapter on Sunday with everything to play for at the iconic Mobolaji Johnson Arena. 

Visitors Remo will be gunning to land another telling blow after their 2-1 win in the reverse fixture ended Sporting's unbeaten start after promotion from the NNL.

But the rookie top-flight side has grown a thick skin since that early setback and now finds themselves slugging it out to beat the drop from 12th in the standings. 

Both teams will be aiming for a victory that could prove pivotal in their respective journeys and targets this season in the NPFL.

At the other end of the spectrum, fourth-placed Remo have loftier ambitions. The prospect of a first NPFL title is driving them on in what is turning out to be a tantalising title race that's shaping up for a grandstand finish.

With such contrasting aspirations adding extra spice, fans can expect a ferocious Southwest Derby tussle as neighbourhood bragging rights go on the line again.

The stakes could hardly be higher - from potential glory to gritty survival, it's all to play for when these two regional (not bitter) rivals collide in a match that simply cannot be missed.

Fans across Nigeria can soak up every second of the drama by tuning into Propel Sports' live coverage from 4 pm on Sunday. 

While other NPFL offerings are available on the StarTimes Beta Channel 244, this is the main event.

So, get ready to take your seats and buckle up. The Southwest Derby is here - but which team will claim the needed bragging rights?
