Nigeria is top of Group B of the qualifier with 10 points while Zambia sit second with seven points from the same game played.
Both team will clash on October 7 in Uyo in what could be tie breaker or decider if they achieve their desirous results.

“I’m happy to be called up again because it’s always a great honour to play for my country,”
Ighalo told BBC Sport.
“We know Zambia is a strong team and they will come with full determination in Uyo, we cannot
engage in irrelevant pre-match talking but deliver on the pitch.
“I’ve never played at the World Cup and like my other colleagues, we all want to be in Russia, this is like a final for us.”
