Team News

Nigeria
Cameroon
  • Nigeria are expected to continue with a three-man backline for their meeting with Cameroon.
  • Vincent Aboubakar remains a doubt for Cameroon but will likely start against Nigeria if fit.

Prediction

  • Nigeria weren't wholly convincing in the group stages of AFCON but they got the job done, collecting seven points from their nine games despite scoring just three goals.
  • Cameroon were minutes away from group stage elimination yet booked their last-16 spot thanks to a late win over Gambia. The potential return of Vincent Aboubakar is a huge boost for the Indomitable Lions.
  • Both nations have struggled at AFCON so far and a nervy stalemate may be on the cards on Saturday night.
