COD Utd hunt for first road win



City Of David (COD) United are planning a shock party for their Matchday 4 hosts in the Nigeria National League (NNL).

Abia Comets play hosts to COD United in Group B of the NNL in Umuahia this Saturday and one of the away team's strikers, Saka Taofeek is confident of earning the scalp of their opponents.

The former Bolowotan man has also tipped himself to open score for COD United in their planned shock party for Abia Comets.

"We've prepared very well for this tie and would do much better than our last away game against Crown FC.

"I'm also sure of opening my goal account for the season against Abia Comets as I have been working extensively hard in training," the striker said.

Olabode Awakan's COD United have taken six points from nine so far this term in Nigeria's second tier.

COD United's wins have come from home matches against Abia Warriors and Divine Warriors.
