Super Eagles off to Zanzibar for Tanzania rematch

Nigeria’s Super Eagles will travel to Zanzibar this afternoon, Sunday, November 15, ahead of their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying encounter against Tanzania.

The team will face the Taifa Stars on Tuesday, November 17, at the Amaan Stadium, with kick-off scheduled for 2pm Nigerian time.

The encounter is crucial for Nigeria’s qualification hopes, as the Super Eagles sit one point behind Group L leaders Guinea-Bissau.

A victory in Zanzibar would keep Nigeria firmly in the race for the group’s sole qualifying ticket and could take Eric Chelle’s side to the top of the standings, depending on Guinea-Bissau’s result.

The Super Eagles will therefore be targeting all three points as they seek to build on their 3-1 victory over Tanzania in Uyo and strengthen their position in the qualification campaign.
