Echegini will start ahead of Esther Okoronkwo, who started in the previous group game vs Spain.
Asisat Oshoala starts for the second straight game as coach Randy Wadrum has kept faith with the core of his team for this must-win game.
Victory today and favourable results elsewhere could keep the Super Falcons alive despite losing their first two group matches.
