Nigeria will clash with Mozambique in a last-16 game at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Monday.

The Super Eagles are regarded as favourites to progress into the quarter-finals of the competition.

Eric Chelle is expected to make a couple of changes to his starting XI for the match, having rested some players for the last group fixture.

One of those changes will be goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali returning between the sticks, after Francis Uzoho faced the Cranes.

Semi Ajayi will also return to partner Calvin Bassey in the centre of defence, while Bruno Onyemaechi is set to keep his place at left-back.

Bright Osayi-Samuel will take the place of the injured Ryan Alebiosu at right-back.

​Alex Iwobi and captain Wilfred Ndidi will reclaim their places from Raphael Onyedika and Fisayo Dele-Bashiru.

Chelle is likely to start with four attackers. Victor Osimhen and Akor Adams will lead the line and flanked by Ademola Lookman and Samuel Chukwueze.
