MATCH PREDICTION
One of the stand-out games across this round of CAF group stage qualification fixtures sees Nigeria host South Africa. The Super Eagles have work to do following consecutive draws in Group C and need to capitalise on facing a side who’ve already suffered defeat on the road in the group stage away to Rwanda.
Although South Africa are a dangerous team, they don’t contain the strength-in-depth of Nigeria and will struggle to match the hosts when considering the individual ability of certain players within the Super Eagles. Expect things to click nicely here for Nigeria and for them to record an important victory over Bafana Bafana.
