Akwa United manager, Abdul Maikaba feels his side are still in the race to claim their first Nigeria Professional Football League crown.
Despite being seven points behind table-topping Plateau United, Maikaba feels his side has the ability to pip their rivals to top spot in the league.
“The ambition is to win the title for the first time with Akwa United,” Maikaba said.
“At this time of the season last term, Wikki Tourists were leading Enugu Rangers by 6 points, and at the end, Rangers won the trophy.
“Akwa United are 8 points behind Plateau United and we have an outstanding game at home. We can cover 8 points in 3 games and our job is to continue winning home and away.
“So, I believe it can happen this season.”
