Algeria vs. Nigeria lineups, team news

Midfielder Ismael Bennacer remains a doubt after he was forced off against DR Congo, while Jaouen Hadjam and Anis Hadj Moussa are likely miss the rest of the tournament due to injuries.

Adil Boulbina has made a case for himself after scoring the decisive goal in the previous match, and Riyad Mahrez remains a top contender for the Golden Boot with three goals.

Algeria predicted XI: Zidane; Belghali, Mandi, Bensebaini, Ait Nouri; Boudaoui, Zerrouki, Chaibi; Mahrez, Amoura, Maza

Ademola Lookman and Victor Osimhen will aim to add to their three-goal tallies, while Alex Iwobi provides creativity in midfield.

Coach Eric Chelle appears to have a fully fit squad at his disposal. Stanley Nwabali is expected to continue in goal, with a back four of Bright Osayi-Samuel, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey and Bruno Onyemaechi

Captain Wilfred Ndidi will likely sit at the base of the midfield, with Frank Onyeka on the right flank and Lookman just behind the front two of Osimhen and Akor Adams.

Nigeria predicted XI: Nwabali; Osayi-Samuel, Ajayi, Bassey, Onyemaechi; Onyeka, Ndidi, Iwobi; Lookman; Osimhen, Adams
