The wait is almost over for the International Friendlies action taking place on Friday when Russia will take on Nigeria.
All Russia v Nigeria match predictions, user poll and stats are shown below - as well as up-to-date odds.
Russia, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following a 5-0 International Friendlies triumph over Zambia.
For Russia, the goalscorers were Maksim Glushenkov (8', 54', 58'), Ilya Vakhania (44') and Aleksey Batrakov (73').
Russia haven’t had any problems with scoring, netting every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 games.
They’ve totted up the amount of 32 during that time and have conceded a total of 0. We will see whether or not that trend will be sustained in this game.
In their last game, Nigeria drew 2-2 in the International Friendlies match with Jamaica.
For Nigeria, the goals were scored by Moses Simon (9') and Samuel Chukwueze (53'). Kaheim Dixon (12') and Jon Russell (63') scored for Jamaica.
Nigeria have seen success in front of goal of late, having scored 9 goals in their previous 6 matches. Having said that, Nigeria have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 5 of those same outings.
Our thinking is that Nigeria have it within them to find the net against this Russia outfit, but it possibly won’t be as many as the goals that they could concede.
We’re predicting a narrow 2-1 advantage for Russia by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
