There’s A Major Change Ahead Of Nigeria’s Clash Against Algeria

The Super Eagles face Le Fennecs on Friday in an international friendly, but there is a new development ahead of the clash 

Nigeria’s game against Algeria will no longer take place at the Jacques Lemans Arena with the clash now moved to Worthersee Stadium in Klagenfurt in Austria.

The three-time African champions play the current African champion in what will be the first meeting between the two sides since their semi-final match at the Africa Cup of Nations last year.

The match was scheduled to take place at the home ground of FC St. Veit, but it has now been moved to Woethersee Stadium, which has a bigger capacity.

Woethersee Stadium is the home of Austria Klagenfurt and has a capacity of 30,0000. However, fans will not be allowed into the ground due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Nigeria face Tunisia following their game against Algeria, but the clash will take place at Jacques Lemans Arena unless there is a new change.
