AFCON 2027Q: Chelle shakes up Super Eagles XI for Guinea-Bissau clash

Super Eagles head coach, Éric Chelle is expected to make at least three changes to his starting XI for tonight’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Guinea-Bissau.

According to SCORENigeria, captain Wilfred Ndidi, Samuel Chukwueze and Al-Ittihad striker George Ilenikhena are set to start on the bench.

Raphael Onyedika, Frank Onyeka and Taiwo Awoniyi will all come into the starting line-up in their places.

Chelle is, however, expected to retain the same back four that started Friday’s 2-1 victory over Madagascar’s Barea.
