Bendel Insurance midfielder, James Oronsanye, has expressed confidence as his side gears up for their highly anticipated Matchday 19 clash against Enyimba at the Enyimba International Stadium in Aba on Tuesday. The Benin Arsenals will look to continue their strong momentum as they aim for a positive result in this challenging encounter.

In an exclusive interview with TalkTalk Nigeria, Oronsanye emphasized the importance of securing at least a draw, if not a win, against the formidable People’s Elephant. “A win or draw is our target in the game against Enyimba,” he shared. “We are fully ready for the game, and we need to take something positive from it.”

Currently sitting in 15th place on the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) table with 20 points, Bendel Insurance is determined to climb the rankings and improve their form. Despite their current position, Oronsanye remains optimistic about their chances, particularly with their determined preparation for the game.

Enyimba, a club known for its strong record at home, will undoubtedly pose a tough challenge for Bendel Insurance. However, with the right mindset and a solid strategy, the Benin-based side could surprise many, especially if they manage to capitalize on their opponent's vulnerabilities.

This fixture will undoubtedly test Bendel Insurance’s resilience, but with Oronsanye’s leadership and the team’s collective effort, they are ready to make their mark. Fans of the Benin Arsenals will be hoping that their team can defy the odds and return from Aba with something to show for their efforts.

Opinion:

Bendel Insurance's approach to the game against Enyimba shows a level-headed mentality, one that is often needed in football. Oronsanye's realistic target of securing at least a point is a wise decision, given the unpredictable nature of away games, especially against a team like Enyimba. However, it’s not just about defending for a draw. If Bendel Insurance can take the game to Enyimba, they may just unlock a potential victory, giving them a much-needed boost in their push up the league table.

In football, anything can happen, and Bendel Insurance has the opportunity to make a statement. The belief is there, and with players like Oronsanye leading the charge, fans have every reason to hope for a positive outcome.
