Nigeria takes on the visitors Argentina at “Saint-Petersburg Stadium” in the matchday three of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia group stage. The game will be played in Saint Petersburg on Tuesday, June 26th.
Nigeria is one of the best African teams, the players demonstrate consistent football and may count for certain success. It goes without saying that “Super Eagles” failed the first battle of the current Mundial, being weaker than their opponent, however, the Africans looked amazing in the second fight and gained a confident victory, having left no chances to the rival. In the previous encounters played Nigeria has broken Iceland 2:0 as well as lost to Croatia 0:2 and Czech Republic 0:1.

As for Argentina, the side was considered to be one of the main favourites of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia, but the first two games showed that the team is in horrible conditions now. Despite its strong roster, “La Albiceleste” has big problems with defense. Argentina couldn’t beat Iceland as Lionel Messi didn’t convert a penalty while the next clash against Croatia was a real disaster. Thus, in the recent tackles the Argentines was thrashed 0:3 by Croatia, smashed Haiti 4:0 and deserved 1:1 draw against Iceland.
Nigeria celebrated 4:2 triumph over Argentina in the previous head-to-head. At this moment, a victory is the only chance for visitors to promote from the group. I assume Lionel Messi will do his best for a win and I expect “La Albiceleste” to succeed, however, the spread won’t be big.
Prediction for the match: Nigeria to win with +1.5 Asian handicap.
