Whichever way you look at it, the Craven Cottage is the place to be on Monday 18th November 2013, it will be a real battle of the titans as Italy faces African Super Eagles. Both teams having qualified for the 2014 World Cup, their coaches will be trying out different players in an attempt to identify the most probable squads for the World Cup.

It is interesting to note in this Italy-Nigeria preview that these two teams have only met once before, during the 1994 World Cup. They shared the spoils; drawing 1-1 in a match that left Nigerian supporters with a sour taste in the mouth after a late equalizer by Roberto Baggio, in extra time Roberto Baggio scored again and Italy qualified for the next round. Even though Nigeria will be buoyed by their World Cup qualification over the weekend, they will be wary of their opponents who have won the world cup 4 times.

Nigeria won both games against Ethiopia in WC Africa Qualification and have qualified for World Cup 2014

Possible Lineups:

Italy: Marchetti; Maggio, Obgonna, Ranocchia, Pasqual; Verratti, Poli, Parolo; Cerci, Insigne, Rossi.

Nigeria: Enyeama; Ambrose, Echiejile, Oboabona, Brown; Omeruo, Mikel, Moses, Musa, Onazi; Emenike.
