By Avideep Nandi Majumdar:

Ivory Coast will be looking to make it 2 out of 2 wins on the trot as they face Nigeria in Abidjan. The Elephants were not at their best in their first match against Guinea Bissau, however goals from Seko Fofana and Jean Philippe Krasso helped the triumph  over fellow African rivals.

Nigeria on the other hand will be looking to get their first win of Africa Cup of Nations after opening their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Equatorial Guinea. EG had opened the scoring through Ivan Salvador, however Nigerian starman Victor Osimhen equalised 2 minutes later. Despite fashioning goal scoring opportunities in the second half, they couldnt find a winner. 
With Ivory Coast having the support of home crowd, they will indeed prove to be a tough nut to crack for Nigeria, and they will have to play out of their skins to get something from the match. A lot will depend on Victor Osimhen, their star man.
