Nigeria take on the visitors Tanzania in the round four match of Africa Cup of Nations qualification. The match will be played on Saturday, September 3rd.
Nigeria failed qualifying camping for the Africa Cup on Nations and has only two points after three matches played as they drew with Tanzania, 0-0, Egypt, 1-1, and lost to the Pharaohs, 0-1. The upcoming match won’t allow any of the teams to move Egypt form the first place of the standings. Such failure come as big surprise as Nigeria show successful results in 2016, taking four wins, two draws and two defeats. On top of that, Nigeria Olympic team won bronze medals in Brazil this year.

Tanzania lives under low expectations and show poor results for many years. The team in the group with tough Egypt and Nigeria didn’t manage to score a single goal, losing twice to the Pharaohs, 0-3 and 0-2 and drew with Nigeria, 0-0. The team played only three matches in 2016, beating Chad, 1-0, drawing with Kenya, 1-1 and losing to Egypt, 0-2.
Nigeria and Tanzania faced one another four times. Two of the head-to-heads ended with draw and other two were won by Nigeria. Of course, the hosts of the match are disappointed with results of the campaign so we should expect nothing but top performance form the team in clash against mediocre opponents.
Prediction for the match: Nigeria to win with -1.5 Asian handicap.
