Goal Scorer:
Nigeria
Peseiro sticking with a back three against eliminated Guinea-Bissau suggests the Nigeria boss could continue with that formation for the rest of the competition.
Alhassan Yussuf and William Troost-Ekong should return to the squad, although the midfield man's involvement is uncertain unless the Super Eagles revert to a back four or alter the 3-4-2-1 for a 3-5-2.
Ademola Lookman was a substitute in Nigeria's final group fixture, but the Atalanta BC forward should be restored to the line-up, while Zaidu Sanusi is anticipated to start against the Lions of Cameroon.
Nigeria possible starting lineup:
Nwabali; Aina, Bassey, Ekong, Ajayi, Bassey; Iwobi, Onyeka; Chukwueze, Osimhen, Lookman
Cameroon
Song dropped Andre Onana for the five-time African champions' final group game with Gambia, and the Manchester United goalkeeper's place is uncertain before Saturday's game.
With reports pointing to the return of Vincent Aboubakar from injury, Cameroon could be tempted to play the centre-forward from the off against the three-time AFCON winners.
No player at this year's finals has created more chances than Georges-Kevin N'Koudou's 10, and the attacker should play a pivotal part for the Indomitable Lions against Nigeria.
Cameroon possible starting lineup:
Ondoa; Castelletto, Wooh, Tolo; Mbiayi, Ntcham, Anguissa, Yongwa; Ekambi, Aboubakar, N'Koudou
Prediction: Nigeria 1-2 Cameroon
