Published: November 23, 2019

The anticipation for the English Premier League is at its peak. There are nine fixtures to keep us entertained this weekend, a mind blowing soccer fiesta is about to kickoff.

These are the three Nigeria-eligible players to look out for during match day thirteen.

Wilfred Ndidi: Leicester city’s big man in the middle has made the most tackles and has had the most interceptions in Europe’s top five leagues this season.

He seems to have all the answers to all the moves made by the opposition. Thus, he is dubbed as “the lion in the middle of the court”.

He would be able to deliver one of his scintillating displays this weekend as they take on Leon Balogun’s Brighton and Hove Albion . He ticks all the boxes of a complete defensive midfielder.

Alex Iwobi : Everton possess a powerhouse in the figure of Alex Iwobi. The 23-year-old was on target for the Super Eagles in the last match against Lesotho.

We have seen glimpses of his intricate passing in conjunction with his eye for goal. He is not a player to be underestimated, due to his ability to slow and increase the tempo of the game.

Naturally, he relishes the role of spreading the ball to his teammates in all the parts of the pitch which has made him ahead of the pack. An assist against Norwich City this weekend is a likely outcome.

Dominic Solanke: He will be looking to impress against Wolves. They are tricky opponents, always ready to win every game.

His performances have shown off his ferocious finishing and shooting accuracy. If he is given the chance , he can deliver the end product.
