Heartland FC captain, Christian Molokwu, is set to miss his team’s crucial away fixture against Katsina United due to suspension. The match, which is the opening fixture of NPFL Matchday 23, is scheduled to take place on Friday, February 7, 2025, at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium in Katsina.
Molokwu's absence is due to an accumulation of yellow cards from previous matches, ruling him out of the encounter. His leadership and defensive presence will be missed as the Naze Millionaires seek to extend their unbeaten run in the league.
Heartland FC heads into this fixture with confidence after securing a commanding 2-0 home victory over former NPFL champions, Rivers United. The win marked their fourth consecutive unbeaten game since December 29, 2024, and they have collected eight points from their last four matches.
Despite Molokwu’s absence, Heartland FC will rely on their recent form to navigate this tough away challenge. The team is aiming to maintain its momentum and climb further up the NPFL standings as the season progresses.
Meanwhile, defender Chinedu Ozor, who previously played for Katsina United before moving to Heartland, acknowledges the difficulty of playing at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium. His experience could be crucial as Heartland looks to secure a positive result on the road.
