Enugu Rangers Lead NPFL Table as 2025/2026 Season Reaches Peak

The Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) title race has intensified as the season enters its final stages. Enugu Rangers currently sit at the top of the table with 62 points after 36 matches, holding a slim one-point lead over Rivers United. The competition for continental spots remains fierce, with Ikorodu City and Shooting Stars (3SC) trailing closely in third and fourth places.

As the league enters May, the battle at the bottom is equally high-stakes. Teams like Kwara United and Niger Tornadoes are fighting to stay clear of the four-team relegation zone. The 2025/2026 season has been marked by increased stadium attendance and a surge in local talent visibility, with several domestic players now being scouted for the national team following consistent performances in the league.
