2023 AFCON Guinea-Bissau v Nigeria: Everything you need to know about Super Eagles' last group game
Published: January 22, 2024
A decent start has Nigeria tied on points in Group A with the Nzalang Nacional of Equatorial Guinea heading into Monday's clash with Guinea-Bissau in Abidjan.
While qualification is practically assured, the Super Eagles know maximum points caps a perfect group stage and sets up an advantageous knockout path.
A draw guarantees Nigeria advances, but victory sees them win the group if Equatorial Guinea drop points against Ivory Coast.
Guinea-Bissau must win and hope Equatorial Guinea defeat Ivory Coast to stand a chance of progressing as one of the best third place teams.
While Nigeria remains heavy favorites on paper, they cannot lose sight of getting the job done to ensure smooth passage deeper into the tournament. With an expected tough test in clear sight, Peseiro's men carry optimism onwards.
Manager Jose Peseiro should have his side focused on securing that top spot when they face the Guinea-Bissau aiming to who currently sit at the bottom of the group.
Head to Head records
Having faced each other in the qualifiers en route to this tournament, both sides have only ever met thrice with the Super Eagles boasting the superior record, winning twice and succumbing to a defeat on one occasion.
