NNL Super 4 Playoffs draw is scheduled to hold at the Marriott Hotel in Ikeja, Lagos, where participating clubs and key stakeholders will learn their fixtures for the final phase of the campaign.

The playoffs, which determine the overall NNL champions, will run from May 1 to May 8, 2026, with this year’s edition set to be hosted at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State.

The venue has increasingly established itself as a prominent centre for major football events in Nigeria, adding significance to the high-stakes conclusion of the season.

Beyond determining the league champion, the tournament will also decide the remaining promotion slots into the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) for the upcoming season.

So far, Doma United have secured promotion from the Northern Conference, while Inter Lagos and Sporting Lagos have sealed their places from the Southern Conference after strong seasonal performances.

However, one promotion ticket remains undecided, with Ranchers Bees and Jigawa Golden Stars locked in a tense battle for the final Northern Conference slot.

Their outcome is expected to add further intrigue ahead of the playoffs, as anticipation builds across the league.
