FIFA Ranking: 124th

Last five games: DWLW

The Wasps have been pretty decent in this FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign, heading here with a loss in four matches. Rwanda's last game in the group resulted in a (0-1) Lesotho on the road, as Jojea Kwizera scored the only goal that won them the maximum points. Torsten Spittler’s men have now won twice, drawn once, and lost a game since the tournament began, sitting in first place on the log. 

Torsten Spittler's men failed to make it to the AFCON Tournament as they ended in third place on their log. They’ll be keen to fight for a top-two finish in this competition, and to do that, they must win against Nigeria tomorrow.

FIFA Ranking: 44th

Last four games: DDDL

The Super Eagles, who have successfully secured a spot in the forthcoming AFCON competition, have a stern test ahead of their World Cup campaign. Nigeria have played four games without a win, and their most recent FIFA World Cup qualifying game ended in a (2-1) loss against Benin on their ground. Nigeria have been below par, failing to win four consecutive matches in the group. Nigeria presently sit in fifth place on the log, picking up seven points from a combined twelve. 

The Super Eagles are blessed with players who are doing well across the continents, and we expect them to inspire their team to win.

Their last three meetings have ended in a win for Rwanda, while two games have resulted in a tie. Nigeria have not been themselves since this tournament began, and they’ll be desperate for all the points against Rwanda tomorrow. The Super Eagles of Nigeria have acquired the services of a new tactician, and we expect nothing but a decent game on the road tomorrow.

Rwanda on the other hand, have made their home turf a refuge with back-to-back games without a loss. They’ll host a new-look Super Eagles under Eric Chelle tomorrow, and they must be ready to suffocate their guests. 

Nigeria are blessed with top players across the pitch, and with the front three of Victor Oshimen, Chukwu Eze, and Ademola Lookman, it’ll be hard for Rwanda defenders to stop the Super Eagles from finding the back of the net. The guests have no other option but to win tomorrow, and I expect them to narrowly defeat Rwanda on their ground for 1.95 at (Bet365).

The Super Eagles have failed to keep a clean sheet in this tournament and they might likely concede here; bet on BTTS for 2.36 at (1xbet).

I also think Nigeria might likely get a goal before the break for 2.30 at (Betway).

Good luck!
