Nigeria vs Mozambique Predictions - Super Eagles backed in AFCON clash against Mozambique
The upcoming match between Nigeria and Mozambique in the Africa Cup of Nations is highly anticipated. Nigeria, boasting a strong form with five wins in their last seven matches, often concedes goals, suggesting Mozambique might score despite their recent struggles. With Nigeria's robust attack and Mozambique's defensive vulnerabilities, a high-scoring game is expected. Predictive bets favor both teams scoring (BTTS) and a 3-1 victory for Nigeria, whose lineup includes star performers like Alex Iwobi and Victor Osimhen.
- Nigeria strong at AFCON, expected to win against Mozambique.
- Both teams are likely to score, as Nigeria often concedes.
- Predicted final score: Nigeria 3-1 Mozambique.

Nigeria vs Mozambique Predictions
Nigeria have been very good at AFCON thus far but they do tend to concede goals. For this reason, I am backing the Super Eagles to advance, but Mozambique should find a goal.

Head to Head
Nigeria and Mozambique have met on six occasions with Nigeria winning five and one draw.
Nigeria Form
Nigeria have failed to keep a clean sheet at the Africa Cup of Nations but found a way to win all three games. Alex Iwobi assisted goals for Semi Ajayi and Ademola Lookman in a 2-1 win against Tanzania.
Lookman ran the show against Tunisia, assisting Victor Osimhen and Wilfred Ndidi before scoring himself to establish a 3-0 lead. The Super Eagles conceded twice, the 3-2 victory securing a spot in the Round of 16.
Eric Chelle’s side were too good for Uganda in their final group match, winning 3-1 in Fez. Samuel Chukwueze provided two goals for Raphael Onyedika following Paul Onuachu’s opener.
Nigeria Predicted Lineup & News
Nigeria (4-3-1-2) Stanley Nwabali; Bright Osayi-Samuel, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey, Bruno Onyemaechi; Raphael Onyedika, Wilfred Ndidi, Alex Iwobi; Ademola Lookman; Akor Adams; Victor Osimhen
Expect Eric Chelle to bring Wilfred Ndidi, Alex Iwobi, Ademola Lookman and Akor Adams back into the starting side here.
Mozambique Form
Mozambique hardly looked like scoring in their opening match at AFCON, a 1-0 defeat to Ivory Coast. They had two shots on target and 0.24-1.30 expected goals.
Chiquinho Conde’s side found their scoring boots in a 3-2 victory against Gabon. Geny Catamo assisted Faizal Bangal before netting a penalty, Diogo Calila making it 3-1 before holding on under heavy pressure.
The Mambas ended the group stage with a 2-1 loss to Cameroon. Catamo opened the scoring but they were eventually overpowered, ending with 1.07-2.35 xG.
Mozambique Predicted Lineup & News
Mozambique (4-2-3-1) Ivane Urrubal; Bruno Langa, Mexer, Edmilson Dove, Infren Matola; Manuel Kambala, Guima; Geny Catamo, Domingues, Witi; Faizal Bangal
Bruno Langa replaced Diogo Calila after 15 minutes against Cameroon and could start at right-back. Faizal Bangal competes with Stanley Ratifo for a spot up front.
Verdict
Mozambique have the weapons to breach Nigeria’s leaky defence which makes BTTS the best bet here. The Super Eagles scored eight goals in the group stage. another high scoring win expected in Fez.
