Team News

Nigeria
Angola
  • Nigeria are expected to continue with much of the same starting XI as that which progressed past Cameroon in the round of 16.
  • First-choice goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali is a doubt here, having been forced off through injury last time out.
  • Angola will be without goalkeeper Neblu, after he was sent off inside 20 minutes against Namibia last time out.

Head to Head Stats

Prediction

  • Nigeria have now won each of their last three matches without conceding a goal.
  • The Super Eagles progressed past Cameroon in the last 16 thanks to a brace from Atalanta's Ademola Lookman.
  • Angola, meanwhile, have also won each of their last three matches, while keeping a clean sheet in their last two.
  • These two sides met in the final stages of this tournament back in 2018, when Nigeria claimed a 2-1 victory.
  • Expect this encounter to be similarly close, with Nigeria to narrowly edge it.
