Nigeria Super Eagles Predicted XI vs. Guinea-Bissau: Who starts alongside Osimhen?

Set to continue as Nigeria No. 1, Uzoho appears to have firmly seen off competition from Maduka Okoye, who can’t get a game at Watford.With the stopper only rivalled by two inexperienced local keepers, don’t expect him to be unsettled.

Goalkeeper: Francis Uzoho

The future of Nigeria’s backline, Bassey will continue to build his promising Nigeria career in the heart of the defence.

Centre-back: Calvin Bassey

Kenneth Omeruo is only just recovering from injury at Leganes, but has been called up nonetheless.Despite his invitation, he’ll surely be lacking match sharpness, so expect Peseiro to stick with the defensive partnership that featured against Sao Tome e Principe.

Centre-back: Semi Ajayi

With no Ola Aina, Osayi-Samuel is favourite to feature at right-back, despite the presence of Omeruo and Kevin Akpoguma.A more attacking player in his youth, he’s being reconverted into a full-back role at Fenerbahce, and should add a second international cap.

Right-back: Bright Osayi-Samuel

Likely to be uncontested as Nigeria’s first-choice left-back, Sanusi has made eight Champions League appearances for FC Porto this season and will now resume his stop-start international career.

Left-back: Zaidu Sanusi

The anchorman has struggled with injury at Leicester City this season, with his influence at the club waning amidst their battle against relegation.Nonetheless, with Peter Etebo not called and Joe Aribo lacking match fitness, he should return to the starting XI.

Centre-midfield: Wilfred Ndidi

Revived at Everton this season, particularly under Frank Lampard, Iwobi will be expected to be Nigeria’s midfield general against Guinea-Bissau.

Centre-midfield: Alex Iwobi

Peseiro has a tough decision to make here, with both Simon and Chukwueze vying for contention on the right flank.Chukwueze has been in excellent recent form for Villarreal, but Simon’s fine performances for the Eagles last term should see him getting the nod.

Right wing: Moses Simon

Unless Peseiro opts to move Simon or Chukwueze across to the left, Lookman should start on this flank.His form has faded a little in Serie A recently, but he’s still enjoying a magnificent season—with 12 goals for Atalanta—and deserves to partner Osimhen up top.

Left wing: Ademola Lookman 

Nigeria’s undisputed line-leader.There’s no question about whether Osimhen will start or not, although can the Super Eagles create an environment in which he can replicate his relentless Napoli form?

Striker: Victor Osimhen

Peseiro must decide whether Kelechi Iheanacho or Moffi is the best bet to partner Osimhen.While Iheanacho typically thrives in a supporting role, the Moffi-Osimhen duo was so effective against Sao Tome in the Eagles’ last Nations Cup qualifier, that they deserve the opportunity to pick up where they left off.Moffi has also been in better scoring form at club level than Iheanacho this term.
