El-Kanemi Warriors head coach, Zachary Baraje has expressed disappointment with Stanley Eguma's concerns about fairness in their upcoming NPFL tie in Maiduguri.
Eguma had expressed concerns over the lack of media coverage and "monitoring of the match" in Maiduguri.
Baraje said Eguma's concerns were unfounded as none of the teams that had visited the El-Kanemi Stadium this season had complained about poor officiating or inadequate security.
He told supersport.com: "Why is he (Eguma) expressing any fear?
"He should ask the teams that have lost to us if they have been cheated. Have they lost to undeserved goals and penalties?


"Nobody has complained about unfairness, so I don't know where all this is coming from.
"We haven't had any ugly or bad incident in Maiduguri because there is tight security in our stadium despite the stadium being mostly filled up.
"When we played them (Dolphins) earlier on at the Liberation Stadium, they won by a penalty and one of my player’s received a red card, so why is he crying ahead of time?"
Baraje said he was confident they would beat Dolphins on Wednesday.
"In as much as one cannot predict the results of matches, I do not see Dolphins escaping defeat at my home," he told supersport.com.
"We'll be going all out for victory after losing our last game to Sharks.
"We also need victory to sustain our title challenge, and we'll surely beat them."
Baraje was Eguma's assistant at Dolphins for two seasons before joining El-Kanemi Warriors at the start of the current campaign.
El-Kanemi Warriors are third in the NPFL with 54 points from 34 matches, while Dolphins are 11th with 47 points from the same number of matches.
