Preview for match Niger Tornadoes vs Barau FC

On December 29, 2025, at 16:00, the Professional League will witness an intriguing contest between Niger Tornadoes and Barau FC. As we approach matchday 19, both teams display contrasting forms and standings in the league. Niger Tornadoes currently occupy a commendable fifth position on the table, having garnered 20 points from six victories, two draws, and five defeats.
