Guinea-Bissau - Nigeria: Form Analysis
With two consecutive defeats, Guinea-Bissau is on the verge of elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations 2023. Despite displaying a spirited performance in their recent match against Equatorial Guinea, the Djurtus left with no points, making it uncertain whether a victory in their final game would be enough to secure passage to the next round. Baciro Cande's Guinea-Bissau has shown promise in their attacking play, but defensive vulnerabilities are apparent, as seen in their concession of four goals against Equatorial Guinea and two in their opening match against Ivory Coast. While a top-two placement is beyond their reach, a win in the upcoming match will keep them in contention for the best-third-placed finish.
The Super Eagles had a slow start to this year's tournament, opening with a disappointing draw against Equatorial Guinea, but found their rhythm against the Ivorians. In the early moments of their match against Ivory Coast, Nigeria showed glimpses of their capabilities, with the African Footballer of the Year, Victor Osimhen, once again playing a pivotal role in securing his nation's victory. That win positioned them level on points with Nzalang Nacional at the top of AFCON Group A as they set their sights on progressing to the latter stages against Guinea-Bissau. Having faced Guinea-Bissau on three occasions, including two qualifiers for this tournament last year, Nigeria emerged victorious twice. However, in a surprising turn, Guinea-Bissau secured a win in their away fixture.

Guinea-Bissau & Nigeria Squad Analysis
Ouparine Djoco was flagged as a doubt following Guinea-Bissau’s loss to Equatorial Guinea, but there have been no further reports which suggest that the shot-stopper is likely to continue in goal for the upcoming match.
Osimhen not only posed a constant threat to the Ivory Coast defense last time out but also earned the penalty that ultimately made the difference on the day. The Napoli striker will be a key figure in this match as well. In terms of injuries, Zaidu Sanusi stepped in for the injured Alhassan Yusuf in the match against Ivory Coast and should continue in the starting 11 in this match.

Our Guinea-Bissau vs Nigeria Prediction
Guinea-Bissau are on the verge of elimination and will have to throw everything they have into this match in the hope of overcoming the Super Eagles. However, in doing so, they are likely to be vulnerable in defence, which has not been a particularly strong point for them. Nigeria know how to handle pressure in these types of situations and we fancy them to get the job done in this one. Our Guinea-Bissau vs Nigeria prediction: Nigeria to win the match.
