Nigeria are firmly in the Driver’s seat of Group D of the ongoing AFCON with 6 points, while Guinea – Bissau are struggling with a solitary point to their name.
The Super Eagles are through but Augustine Eguavoen’s men will look to conclude the group phase with a 100% record.
GUINEA-BISSAU
The chances of Guinea Bissau to advance to the next round suffered a blow after a 1-0 loss to Egypt in their second group game.
Baciro Cande’s charges had kept the Egyptians at bay for most of the game before Mohammed Salah popped up with a goal in the 69th minute to break the hearts of the Guineans.
Earlier, the Guineans were held by Sudan in their first group game to a scoreless draw. They now have to win to have a chance of progressing in the competition. However, the odds of winning this match are stacked against them having failed to win in their last six matches. In that time, they drew three and lost the other three without scoring a goal.
Guinea- Bissau will be boosted by the return of Joao Mendes and Jorginho who both missed action against Egypt due to COVID-19.
NIGERIA
Nigeria has allayed pre-tournament fears with two commanding displays against Continental powerhouse, Egypt and Sudan which earned them the maximum six points.
Nigeria defeated Egypt 1-0 courtesy of a goal from Kelechi Iheanacho’s 30th-minute strike, before trouncing Sudan 3 – 1 with goals coming from Samuel Chukwueze, Taiwo Awoniyi and the energetic Moses Simon.
With their performance so far, Nigeria have now gone from Dark Horses to contenders. Austin Eguavoen is likely to rest some of his regulars, as he has a fully fit squad to choose from.
CSKA Moscow winger, Chidera Ejuke, Peter Olayinka and Kelechi Nwakali and Tyrone Ebuehi could all get chances to feature.
Irrespective of the team that turns out for the Eagles, they will be strong for the opposition.
