Nigeria, on 12 points from their previous five matches, are already guaranteed a place in the finals, but must earn at least a point to be sure of topping the group ahead of second-placed Guinea Bissau, who are on 10 points and play at home to Sierra Leone in Bissau.

The Super Eagles pummeled the Falcons 10-0 when both teams met in the reverse fixture last November.

Cote d’Ivoire will host the competition from January 13 to February 11, 2024.
