Team News
Nigeria
Kingsley Aniagboso and Victor Sochima have both been handed their maiden call-up to the Nigerian national team, but neither is expected to displace Francis Uzoho between the sticks.

Arguably the hottest property in European football right now, Victor Osimhen is set to lead the hosts' attack in a two-man strike partnership alongside Terem Moffi.

Osimhen, who has now netted 15 times for his country, currently sits ninth in the all-time scoring charts while also boasting the best goal-to-game ratio of anybody in the top 10.

Nigeria possible starting lineup:
Uzoho; Sanusi, Bassey, Ajayi, Osayi-Samuel; Iwobi, Ndidi, Aribo, Lookman; Osimhen, Moffi

Guinea-Bissau
Following his two-goal haul against Sierra Leone, Jorginho is now up to five international strikes for Guinea-Bissau and continues to move up the all-time scoring charts.

Having marked his first outing for the away side with a goal, 25-year-old Jardel will be pushing for a place in the starting lineup for this one.
Guinea-Bissau possible starting lineup:
Mendes; Mane, Nanu, Cande, Nogueira; Cassama, Semedo, Rodrigues; Piqueti, Jorginho, Gano
Prediction: Nigeria 3-1 Guinea-Bissau
