The eagerly awaited 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier between Nigeria’s Super Eagles and Libya’s Mediterranean Knights is scheduled to be held at Akwa Ibom Stadium in Uyo.

This match marks a key moment in Group D, as international football returns to the screen for fans across the continent.

After two matchdays, Nigeria leads the group, having secured four points, while Libya lags at the bottom with just one point.

The Super Eagles are in strong form, going undefeated in their first two qualifiers.

They opened their campaign with a commanding 3-0 victory over Benin Republic and followed up with a goalless draw against Rwanda.

Libya, however, has struggled in the group stages. The Mediterranean Knights earned a 1-1 draw in their home opener against Rwanda but suffered a defeat on the road against Benin, leaving them with one point in the standings.

Nigeria’s solid start in the qualifiers puts them in a favorable position to secure a place in the 2025 AFCON tournament.

The Super Eagles also hold a psychological and historical advantage, having won all previous encounters with Libya.

However, the Mediterranean Knights will aim to defy expectations, seeking at least a draw in Uyo.

Despite Nigeria being the favorites, they will be without their top forward, Victor Osimhen, who has been in exceptional form since joining Galatasaray. His absence may test the team’s attacking prowess.

Time and Where to Watch Nigeria vs. Libya

The first leg of the Nigeria vs. Libya clash is scheduled for Friday, October 11, 2024, with a 5 PM local time kick-off. Fans can catch the action live on AfroSport TV.
