Nigeria - Argentina Prediction, Picks and Tips
Third time lucky. I hope that this old adage will check Argentina fans. If Messi and company win with Nigeria, they will almost certainly find themselves in the World Cup knockout stage, and there they will probably find their way to an old, good friend - Mexico. However, one more condition needs to be promoted - Iceland should not win high with Croatia. Will it be Jorge Sampaoli who will lead Albicelestes in the last chance match? Until then, he is still an Argentine trainer, but knowing the characters of people from South America, this can change at any moment.
Will Argentina manage to defeat the African team? We bet, yes. However, certainly Nigeria can not be ignored. Few put on the charges of coach Gernot Rohr in a duel with the Scandinavians. Meanwhile, they dispersed Iceland 2: 0 being better on every level. And let's remind you that before the Vikings drew with Argentina and they are still in the game for promotion (they need Argentina's win and have to win against Croatia themselves). Four years ago, Messi and company defeated Nigeria 3: 2 in the group stage, and Ahmed Musa scored both goals for the African team (also excellent in this tournament). This time Musa will also make it, but Nigeria will lose 1: 2.
These teams played with each other at the 2014 and 2010 World Cups. Argentina won both. The last 5 duels of these teams are 3 wins Biancocelestes and 2 Nigeria. Argentina has so far accumulated 1 point, Nigeria 3. Nigeria won only 1 of the last 5 matches.
