Anas Yusuf is not even listed on the matchday squad, while late additions Samuel Ayanrinde and Kazeem Ogunleye make the bench.
Niger Tornaodes star Papa Daniel impressed when he was brought on as a second half sub in Ghana.
Coach Daniel Ogunmodede has therefore kept faith with the players who started against the Black Galaxies of Ghana in Accra Sunday.
The winners of this playoff will advance to the delayed 2024 CHAN to be hosted in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda in February.
CHAN Eagles Starting XI (4-3-3) Henry Ozoemena – Sodiq Ismaila, Junior Nduka (Captain), Ifeanyi Onyebuchi, Imo Obot – Zayyad Musa, Jide Fatokun, Saviour Isaac – Sadiq Abubakar, Sikiru Alimi, Papa Daniel.
