Nigeria vs Sierra Leone: Super Eagles Aim For Three Points in Benin

Nigeria battle Sierra Leone for three points after the race for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations championship hots up.

The Super Eagles head into the game with a maximum of six points after back-to-back victories over Lesotho and Benin.

And they will be gunning for another victory against the Leone Stars at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin.

Gernot Rohr and his men are targetting early qualification by beating their West African counterpart both home and away so they can give other fringe players opportunities in the last two games.

Meanwhile, coach John Keister's men will also be targetting their first win since the qualifiers started having picked up just one point in their first two AFCON games.

Both teams have met 14 times across competitions with the Super Eagles claiming victories nine times and losing just twice to the Leone Stars.

Also, Napoli forward will be a player to watch in the game having already scored three goals in the last two games and he is in the race for the qualifiers golden boot.
