The biggest news hours leading up to the clash was Vincent Enyeama announcing his retirement from international football, meaning the Lille shot - stopper was omitted from the 11 players that will step out on the pitch.
Wolves netminder Carl Ikeme will be in between the pipes for the third time in Nigeria colours, and Elderson Echiejile, Abdullahi Shehu, William Troost - Ekong and Leon Balogun will protect him.
Chelsea’s Obi Mikel will start in midfield alongside Eddy Onazi (Lazio ) and Rabiu Ibahim (AS Trencin).
