Just as SCORENigeria reported earlier, Francis Uzoho will be in goal for the Super Eagles against Algeria tonight, while Terem Moffi will lead the attack.
Both players were reserved for this clash after they did not see action against Algeria’s CHAN team Friday.
Uzoho has been considered ahead of Maduka Okoye, whose mistake on Friday led to a goal and caused a storm on social media.
Uzoho was the team’s No 1 at the 2018 World Cup before he eventually lost the spot to Okoye.
In the absence of Victor Osimhen, Moffi, who has netted six goals in eight appearances in the French Ligue 1, will be expected to deliver goals for the Super Eagles tonight.
Peseiro has also hone with the strongest central defence combination available for selection – Kevin Akpoguma and Calvin Bassey.
Moses Simon will captain the team.
Kick-off time is 8pm in Oran.
Super Eagles Starting XI (4-3-3)– Francis Uzoho – Zaidu Sanusi, Ola Aina, Calvin Bassey, Kevin Akpoguma – Frank Onyeka, Alex Iwobi, Kelechi Iheanacho – Moses Simon (Captain), Terem Moffi, Ademola Lookman
