Saudi Arabia team news: Saudi Arabia head to the game against Nigeria after losing all their last six matches. The Asian powerhouse lost against South Korea, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Venezuela, Mexico and Poland. The Green Falcons will be hoping to get their first victory under their new coach, Roberto Mancini who was appointed in August. Mancini has already unveiled his 31-man squad for the Nigeria clash this week and the Mali game next week.
The match could end 2-1 in favour of Jose Peseiro’s side. Speaking with DAILY POST, Isa Saleh Sadiq, a Football scout and the CEO of International Football Academy based in Northern Nigeria, gave his opinion on Nigeria’s clash with Saudi Arabia. Sadiq said: “This international friendly will be a tough one for both teams. The Saudi are yet to win a game under Mancini. I think the Italian has lost his first two games in charge of the team.
Nigeria team news: Head coach of the Super Eagles, Jose Peseiro, has already called up 25 players to camp for the upcoming friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique. Gent forward, Gift Orban has not been called up. Instead, Nice’s Terem Moffi was invited after he was left out for Nigeria’s last game against Sao Tome and Principe. Nottingham Forest attacker, Taiwo Awoniyi will play no part in Nigeria’s two friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique because of injury. Awoniyi recently sustained a groin injury in training with Nottingham Forest which could see him sidelined for up to a month. Nottingham Forest manager, Steve Cooper confirmed Awoniyi’s injury prior to his side’s Premier League 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Also, Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina has been ruled out of the two friendlies with injury.
The former Manchester City manager called up thirty one players based in Saudi Arabia, with Al-Hilal contributing the most players to the roster (12). Nigeria’s probable starting XI: Francis Uzoho, Bright Osayi-Samuel, Oluwasemilogo Ajayi, Kenneth Omeruo, Calvin Bassey, Wilfred Ndidi, Frank Onyeka, Alex Iwobi, Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman and Victor Boniface. Saudi Arabia’s probable starting XI: Mohammed Al-Owais, Yasser Al-Shahrani, Hassan Al-Tambakti, Saud Abulhamid, Salem Al-Dawsari, Abdulrahman Ghareeb, Mohamed Kanno, Eid Al-Muwallad, Firas Al-Buraikan, Abdullah Al-Hamdan. Prediction: It is believed that Nigeria will beat Saudi Arabia.
So I expect him to come out with a formidable team that will match the Super Eagles. “Let’s not forget that the Saudi team participated in the last World Cup in Qatar and even defeated the World Cup champions Argentina in the group stage in Qatar. So I expect a very close game against Nigeria. ” Sadiq also expressed his happiness for some of the players invited by Peseiro to partake in the friendly game. He said, “I must give kudos to Peseiro for inviting players who are on form and playing regularly for their club sides. I am particularly happy to see OGC Nice player Terem Moffi, Victor Boniface, who plays for Bayer Leverkusen and Fisayo Dele-Bashiru of Hatayaspor for his maiden call-up to the national team.
