Good afternoon!
Welcome to The Independent’s coverage of the World Cup qualifiers.
We usually focus on the European side of things but today’s action comes from the African qualifiers were Nigeria are in a bit of trouble.
They sit third in Group C with two matches to play and only the top team in each group is guaranteed a place at the World Cup.
The Super Eagles need to win their last two matches and hope other results also go there way.
We’ll have the latest permutations, team news and updates throughout the day so stick with us as we build up to kick off at 5pm.
