Brazil vs Nigeria Prediction: Expect a high-scoring match

Prediction for the match between Brazil vs Nigeria, which will take place on May 27. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Brazil is a five-time Under-20 World Champion, but they last won a global title in 2011 when they triumphed in Lithuania. They failed to qualify for the last two World Cups, but now they have managed to qualify through the South American qualifiers, where they finished first at the continental championships. The FIFA World Cup 2023 debut was not a success for the team as they lost to the Italians 0:3 by the 35th minute, but then almost got back into the game but lost 2:3 anyway. But in the second round, the Brazilians got a 6:0 win over the Dominicans without too much trouble.

Nigeria is one of the most decorated teams on the African continent, having won the Africa Cup of Nations seven times in their history. They missed the title in 2023, finishing with a bronze medal, but that was enough to qualify for the 2023 FIFA World Cup. The Whites and Greens have never won at the World Championships, but they have twice won silver medals, but that was a long time ago, in 1989 and 2005. But at the tournament in Argentina, the Nigerians have so far shown excellent results. They started by beating the Dominicans 2:1 but then beat the Italians 2:0, ensuring their qualification for the playoffs.

Nigeria had a great World Cup 2023 as they were the first team to make the playoffs in a tough group against the Brazilians and Italians, and they won two straight to start the tournament. But the Yellow Greens, regarded as the main favorites in the quartet, have already suffered one setback, so they are now hugely motivated to pick up three points in the tournament. Otherwise, they risk missing out on the playoffs. The South Americans are vastly superior to their closest rivals.

The Brazilian and Nigerian teams have been quite productive in the World Cup 2023. The South Americans started the tournament with a spectacular and scorching encounter with the Italians when they lost 2:3. Then they crushed the Dominicans 6:0. The Nigerians have been sensational since before the tournament kicked off, with their last four matches coming away with 15 goals against (3.75 goals per game on average). That means we have a high-scoring rivalry.
