This weekend, the Super Eagles host their counterparts from Sao Tome, the Falcons and True Parrots, in the beautiful city of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.

The encounter will be the second match at this level between both nations after the first at Agadir, Morocco, in the summer of 2022.

Jose Peseiro will be eager to see his boys impress in the final game of the AFCONQ2023 against a side they are expected to beat.

Sao Tome and Principe had nowhere to hide the first and last time they faced the Super Eagles.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles proved too good on the day following a record-breaking 10-0 thrashing in what was the second win of the campaign. 

The Eagles were inspired by SSC Napoli hero, Victor Osimhen, who was involved in six of the goals as he scored four and assisted two more.

That heavy win saw Nigeria record its biggest-ever win en route picking one of two tickets for the tournament slated for Ivory Coast next year.

With the ticket now sealed for Nigeria, coach Peseiro will be hoping for another good outing against the True Parrots to help ease what has been a difficult period for him and his employers, the NFF.

Group A of AFCONQ2023 

While Nigeria has secured a place in the tournament proper, there is little matter of who finishes as group winners.

The Super Eagles are in a head-to-head battle with Guinea–Bissau for the race to win Group A.

Both sides go into the final round of matches separated by just two points, with Nigeria top of the Group with 12 points from a possible 15. 

Nigeria Super Eagles and their Guinea-Bissau counterparts are both at home this weekend and it will be interesting to see who finishes at the top of Group A.
