Nigeria vs South Africa Team Overview

Nigeria

Nigeria have opened their first two matches in Group C of the World Cup Qualifiers without a win. The Super Eagles could only draw 1-1 at home to Lesotho and 1-1 away to Zimbabwe.

The two draws mean that Nigeria is third in Group C, trailing leaders Rwanda by two points. They are also one point behind second-place South Africa, their next opponents in the World Cup Qualifiers.

Football prediction analysis shows that the upcoming match will be crucial for the Super Eagles. They need to start winning to have a chance of making it out of Group C.

South Africa

South Africa will renew its rivalry with Nigeria, which they knocked out of the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast at the semi-final stage.

With an exciting young team, football predictions back South Africa to have an effect in Group C ahead of their clash with Nigeria.

Bafana Bafana opened their Group C campaign with a 2-1 win at home to Benin before losing 2-0 away to leaders Rwanda. Football bet predictions highlight South Africa’s upsurge in form and the likelihood of giving Nigeria a run for their money win the two sides clash in the World Cup Qualifiers.

Nigeria vs South Africa Prediction

  • Football Pick: Draw

The head-to-head statistics of the fixture between Nigeria and South Africa reveal a tightly contested match. Expert soccer predictions show that both sides have the quality and ability to cause their opponents problems.

In their last five meetings, there have been three draws: two 1-1 stalemates and one 2-2 draw. South Africa has won once (0-2), while Nigeria has also secured one victory (2-1).

Nigeria is the football pick to prevail in this match. They are the hosts, and they will be motivated by the fact that they haven’t won their opening two matches in Group C. However, Bafana Bafana will look to ensure that they do not lose back-to-back matches as they fight to bounce back to winning ways.

Given their respective quality and confidence ahead of the match, Nigeria and South Africa will play to a draw and share the points.

Nigeria vs. South Africa Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: A draw with both sides keeping a clean sheet.

Nigeria’s home record against South Africa is good. Both sides are stacked with clinical attackers but have also shown robust defensive structures. 

However, Nigeria showcased a steely defensive setup at the Africa Cup of Nations led by the reliable Troost-Ekong. They are a safe bet to keep a clean sheet.
