The Super Eagles of Nigeria and Sao Tome & Principe will take on each other in Group A of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium on Sunday.

Nigeria, who are looking to conquer the continent for the fourth time and the first since their 2013 triumph, have now won four of their five games in the qualifiers, with a 1-0 loss against Guinea-Bissau on March 24 being the exception.

The Super Eagles are one of 18 sides to have already booked their spot in Ivory Coast as they lead the way in Group A with a seven-point cushion over third-placed Sierra Leone heading into the final group game.

Meanwhile, Sao Tome & Principe’s quest for their maiden Africa Cup of Nations appearance has come to naught once again as they find themselves rooted to the bottom of the table after a truly bizarre qualifying campaign.

Adriano Eusebio’s men have lost four of five games in Group A, with a thrilling 2-2 draw against Sierra Leone at the Stade Adrar on March 22 being the only exception.

Possible line up 

Nigeria – Francis Uzoho, Calvin Bassey, Semi Ajayi, Ola Aina, Bruno Onyemaechi, Wilfred Ndidi(C), Onyeka, Lookman Ademola, Kelechi Iheanacho, Taiwo Awoniyi, Victor Osimhen.

Sao Tome & Principe – Mendes; Fernandes, Varela, Ramos, Soares; Santos, Silva, Selemane; Leal, Viegas, Barbeiro
