Portugal vs Nigeria 17.11.2022

In what would be their last outing before jostling for glory in Qatar, 2016 European Champions Portugal take on 3-time AFCON winners Nigeria. Fernando Santos’ men begin their World Cup campaign against one of Africa’s representatives, the Black Stars of Ghana. To prepare themselves for the clash, they will take on the Super Eagles who have lost their last 2 games in a row. Although this is not a competitive tie, Portugal will be gunning for a win so as to be in good shape ahead of the showpiece in Qatar.

Meanwhile, having missed out on a ticket to Qatar, the Super Eagles are looking to pick up where they left off, rejuvenate themselves and be in better form ahead of the AFCON 2023 tournament. Peseiro’s men head into this clash on the back of 2 consecutive losses and 1 win in the last 4. They will be counting on Osimhen’s newfound form to get something meaningful here.

Based on current form and Portugal’s quest for a positive showing at the World Cup, we are backing Santos’ lads to win or draw with less than 4 goals scored.
