It will be the renewal of rivalry between two Southwest teams, Ikorodu City and Shooting Stars in the opening game of the Eko International Cup pre-season tournament.
According to the fixtures, the host Ikorodu City will hope to further confirm their dominance over their neighbours who they picked four points from during the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League season.
Despite playing in the elite division for the first time last season, Ikorodu City showed class, finishing fourth on the log, missing out on a continental slot by a whisker.
It was however a season to forget for Shooting Stars who at a point were fighting for the league title before dropping out of the race and will hope to get a win against their rival as they get prepared for the new season.
