Nigeria vs Rwanda: Time and where to watch Super Eagles match

The Super Eagles of Nigeria will be back in action against Rwanda later this week as they look to salvage something from their 2026 World Cup Qualifiers bid, Soccernet.ng reports.

Nigeria are fifth in Group C of the World Cup Qualifiers after picking just three points from their first four games, and they need to get going as soon as possible.

New Franco-Malian coach Eric Chelle was named as Super Eagles’ coach at the start of the year, and he will be looking to start on a strong note to put the fans at ease and get the players’ full backing.

What to know about Rwanda vs Nigeria game

This fixture is crucial for both countries as Rwanda sit at the top of group c with seven points from their first four games. As such, they would come out all guns blazing in front of their 45,508-capacity Stade Amahoro.

The Amahoro Stadium in Rwanda is always full to the brim whenever teams visit, and they will want to use that home advantage to their benefit.

If Rwanda win, they will stay at the summit of group c. But a loss for them would see them drop. Meanwhile, the Super Eagles need to climb higher in their group to stand a chance of qualifying for the World Cup, and a win would surely guarantee that.
