MATCH PREVIEW
PDP are taking an attacking approach with a 3-4-3 formation, while APC, the defending champions, are set for defence with a 5-4-1 formation.

PDP have won four of the five tournaments winning the first three with offside goals before winning their last title in 2011 with genuine goals, while APC won in 2015 with offside.

The two sides have retained their clerical signings who are both on the substitutes bench.

They both swapped players, with PDP signing attacker Atiku Abubakar back for a world record N1bn.
Saraki and Tambuwal were also among big money moves from APC to PDP.

Peter Obi, who was on the substitutes bench in 2015, starts and supports Atiku in attack.
Obasanjo who is getting close to retiring, is dropped to the substitutes bench.

APC signed Sullivan from PDP.
However, APC's Ambode is not fit for this tournament and also the Team Midfielder Okorocha is suspended.
