| Team Ndoma-Egba will be banking on the experience of former Nigerian number one player to get a semifinal slot at the ongoing NCC Tennis League. |
The matches started at about 10 am on Saturday and will start same time on Sunday across all the three venues.
Team Offikwu is still without their star player Sylvester Emmanuel who is abroad playing on the professional circuit but the team has enough fire power in former national champions, Shehu Lawal and Henry Atseye as well as Morocco based junior star, Oyin Quadri, to cope with the equally formidable Abuja based team.
Team Ndoma-Egba will be relying on former national champion Thomas Otu, Paul Emmanuel, Sanni Adamu, Taiwo Owolabi and lead female player Aanu Aiyegbusi to win the tie.
The match between Aiyegbusi and Quadri is expected to be one of the highlights of the Abuja encounter.
