Sudan will meet Nigeria on matchday two of the African Nations Championship (Chan). Going into this match both nations will be targeting their first haul of three points in Group D. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
The opening round wasn’t kind for these two sides. Sudan suffered a late heartbreak against Congo. In the 86th minute, they lost a lead they held from the first half.
Hussein Musa handed them a 29th minute lead but Ekongo Landou canceled it with four minutes of regular time to play. They were actually lucky to collect a point as Congo had a goal ruled out deep in added time.
Nigeria, on the other hand, faced one of the most challenging starts and are now in danger of early elimination. Eric Chelle led his charges against holders Senegal, and they ended up losing 1-0.
Making a first appearance since 2018, Nigeria know they can’t afford another defeat, especially in this group that has four teams. They are at the bottom of the group, having failed to gain a point so far.
Nigeria do have a good run against Sudan, and will be banking on history as well. They have four wins in the last five matches against Sudan.
