Nigeria defeated Iran last Friday, thanks to goals from Akor Adams and Moses Simon, although Mehdi Taremi pulled one back for Amir Ghalenoei's men, but it could only be a consolation goal.
Jordan, on the other hand, took a two-goal lead against Costa Rica on the same day, but Fernando Batista's men overturned the two-goal lead to claim a point.
Jordan, under the tutelage of Jamal Sellami, play a compact system that keeps them defensively solid, while they look to counter whenever they have the ball.
Nigeria, on the other hand, with Chelle's diamond formation, are fine with and without the ball, often playing through central areas with key exchange of intricate passes to open up the opposition.
