Zimbabwe vs Nigeria Live Stream, Predictions

📏 Form Guide

Zimbabwe

LDLLWD

Zimbabwe prepare for this game coming off the back of a 0-0 WC Qualifiers - Africa stalemate versus Rwanda.

It has been all too rare in recent times that Zimbabwe have shown defensive steel. The reality is that Zimbabwe have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 6 goals on the way. Such a trend might not be sustained into this next game, however.

Nigeria

LLLDWD

Last time out, Nigeria drew 1-1 in the WC Qualifiers - Africa tie with Lesotho.

The only scorer from Nigeria was Semi Ajayi (67').

The numbers tell their own story, and Nigeria have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, letting opponents get 13 goals overall. In defence, Nigeria have been far from perfect.

💡 Prediction

Our overall view is that Nigeria look likely to get at least a few goals in this one against Zimbabwe, who will need to fight hard to score themselves.

This could be a real mauling.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a decent 0-3 victory (possibly even more) for Nigeria when the referee blows for full-time.
