Based on the team's workout on Wednesday evening, the only thing that didn't add up was his decision to include Tianjin Teda midfielder John Obi Mikel in the Team B, otherwise he gave a clue as to his probable first-choice to start against the Desert Foxes.

Young Deportivo La Coruna goalkeeper Francis Uzoho is expected to be named on the substitutes bench against the Desert Foxes, having featured for the Team B.

The formation used in training today is not cast in stone, everything will become clearer when the team have their final workout on Thursday, November 9.

Team A : Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Ola Aina, Abdullahi Shehu, Leon Balogun, Troost-Ekong, John Ogu, Wilfred Ndidi, Oghenekaro Etebo, Kelechi Iheanacho, Tony Nwakaeme, Alex Iwobi

Team B: Francis Uzoho (Daniel Akpeyi), Uche Agbo, Tyronne Ebuehi, Chidozie Awaziem, Kenneth Omeruo, Obi Mikel, Chidiebere Nwakali, Ahmed Musa, Henry Onyekuru, Olarenwaju Kayode
