Nigeria faces Equatorial Guinea for its entry into the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, this Sunday (3 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
Eternal heavyweight of African football, Nigeria approaches this edition of the Nations Cup with doubts in its heads. The Super Eagles are on a slippery trajectory sportingly, with three consecutive games without a win. Above all, the Nigerian group is clearly weakened before entering the tournament since Wilfred Ndidi, Victor Boniface and Umar Sadiq are all out. A context which could allow Equatorial Guinea to create a surprise and strike hard from the start, even if the formidable Victor Osimhen, crowned best African player in 2023, will obviously attract all the attention.
The expected compositions:
Nigeria : Uzoho; Osayi-Samuel, Troost-Ekong, Ajayi, Bassey; Chukwueze, Aribo, Iwobi, Simon; Iheanacho, Osimhen.
Equatorial Guinea : Owono; Akapo, Anieboh, Orozco, Ndong; Ganet, Bikoro; Miranda, Machin, Salvador; Nsue
