Nigeria’s win propelled them to fourth place with six points, while Zimbabwe’s three points leave their World Cup aspirations hanging by a thread.
Despite their current position, Zimbabwe will take heart from their previous 1-1 draw against Nigeria. However, the Super Eagles will be confident of securing a win, particularly with the return of key players like captain William Troost-Ekong, Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, and goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali, all of whom missed the earlier encounter.
A victory for Nigeria is essential, as it could potentially elevate them into the top three, keeping their World Cup dreams alive with four games remaining.
