The Super Eagles of Nigeria will trade tackles with the Squirrels of Benin at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo on Tuesday.
This is a game with grave importance for both countries. It is the final game for both countries in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers series, and a win could decide who eventually grabs the 2026 World Cup ticket in Group C.
Benin currently top the group, and even a draw could see them through, provided that Rwanda can hold South Africa in the other Group C game. But Nigeria can also steal a ticket if they defeat Benin and South Africa drop points against the Amavubi.
