AFCON: Yakubu Aiyegbeni predicts Nigeria vs Tunisia game 

Former Super Eagles striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni has predicted a “tough” game when Nigeria face Tunisia in the  2025 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, tie.

The Super Eagles will face off against the North Africans in their second AFCON match on Saturday.

Eric Chelle’s side enters the contest following a 2-1 victory over Tanzania in their opening game on Tuesday, while the Carthage Eagles secured a 3-1 win against Uganda.

As a result, Tunisia currently leads Group C, closely followed by Nigeria, with both teams earning three points each.

After Nigeria’s win over Tanzania, Aiyegbeni told reporters in Morocco, “We were lucky today [against Tanzania].”

“When you look at Tanzania, they have chances to kill the game and we are lucky to get away with it, and hopefully against Tunisia is not going to be easy. It’s going to be a tough one.”

The match between Nigeria and Tunisia is set to kick off at 9 pm, Nigerian time.
