Nigeria will kick off their World Cup qualifying campaign in Group C at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium when they welcome Lesotho on Thursday, with the match slated to start at 16:00 GMT.
Nigeria have been in fine goalscoring form ahead of the start of the World Cup qualifiers. In their last three matches, they have won twice and drawn once. They beat Sao Tome 6-0, drew at Saudi Arabia 2-2, and won away to Mozambique 2-3.
The Super Eagles have shown their potency in the attacking phase. They are clinical and creative in their movement to create goalscoring chances. However, they have not kept a clean sheet in their last four matches.
The focus for Nigeria will be to tighten the defensive structure ahead of hosting Lesotho; this will give them a platform to drive their qualifying campaign.

Lesotho will look to steady their form ahead of the daunting trip to Nigeria.
Neither side has recorded fresh injury worries ahead of Thursday’s one on one clash.
Nigeria will win the match and get their first three points on the path to the World Cup.
