Nigeria vs Zambia Prediction: The Super Falcons will be too strong for the Copper Queens to handle

The Super Falcons of Nigeria will lock horns with the Shepolopolo of Zambia at the 60,000 Stade Mohammed V stadium on Friday. Both teams' hope of winning the title was stabbed in the semifinals, and they are now set to fight for a third-place finish in the competition.

The most successful team in the tournament's history was stunned by Morocco in the semifinals and is now set to battle Zambia for the Bronze trophy.

The Super Falcons stumbled on their second tournament defeat as Morocco defeated them (4-5) on penalties. The action-packed game saw Nigeria ladies down to nine women but still managed to get a goal and force another extra minute in the encounter.

It was one of the most entertaining matches in the tournament as the Super Falcons fought till the end.

The Super Falcons have lost seven times in the last seventy-one matches.

The Copper Queens' unbeaten run ended against South Africa; they were defeated (1-0) in what seemed to be a controversial decision from the official. South Africa played the second best in the match but was awarded a penalty seconds before the final whistle.

The Shepolopolo of Zambia were fierce, precise, and the best in the match. That ended their dream of claiming the trophy, and we wish them well in the forthcoming World Cup.

They haven't won the tournament before, and a third-place finish will be the best outcome in the tournament's history.

Both teams met in 2018, and Nigeria secured the victory with (a 4-0) win over the Shepolopolians.

Nigeria happens to be one of the favourites to win this tournament; however, after the defeat against Morocco, I think they will be pleased with a third-place finish; bet on Nigeria win for 2.20.

The Copper Queens are also a great team, but experience will be the judge in the encounter; bet on BTTS and Nigeria win for 6.00.

Nigeria won't spare the Shepolopolo; bet on Nigeria to win and over 1.5 goals for 2.90.

Good luck!
