The Super Eagles will be testing their might against the Desert Foxes of Algeria, who also are the reigning African champions.

Nigeria to keep the head-to-head advantage

In their 20 previous encounters, it is the Super Eagles that have a slight edge over their North African counterparts.There is the optimism that the Super Eagles will at least pick a draw in this tie to maintain their slight edge over the Desert Foxes who actually won the most recent tie between the nations.Ekong for 40th Cap

While Rohr has kept his team selection for the Algeria friendly close to his heart, the Franco-German needs the experience and solidity of the likes of William Troost-Ekong at the centre-back to give the Desert Foxes a run for their money.Should Ekong get to feature against the reigning African champions, it would be the 40th cap for the Dutch-born defender.

Samuel Chukwueze, Ahmed Musa, Riyad Mahrez and Sofiane Feghouli are not only fast on the ball but they possess the trickery to cut wide open opposing defences. The Algeria, Nigeria friendly match will take place at the Wörthersee Stadion in Klagenfurt, Austria by 7.30 pm.
