Nigeria is coming from winning all of its last five games, teams that the super eagles has defeated are the likes of South Africa, Angola, Cameroon, Guinea-Bissau and Ivory Coast. Nigeria has scored six goals from its last five games and conceded only a goal.

Ivory Coast is coming from winning three from their last five matches in this competition and they have lost two games. They have scored only three goals from their last five games and they have conceded six goals.

All eyes are looking at Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen who plays for Napoli in Italy, and players people are looking on are the likes of Lookman who plays for Atalanta in Italy. Most Ivory Coast fans eyes are at Sebastien Haller who plays for Borussia Dortmund in Germany.
