What is at stake for Nigeria vs. Tanzania?

Nigeria are widely expected to beat Tanzania, Tunisia and Uganda to top spot in Group C, but the Super Eagles will be wary of avoiding another underwhelming campaign such as their disappointing World Cup qualifying run. 

Eric Chelle's side are ultimately looking to go all the way and lift the AFCON trophy, especially after finishing as runners-up in 2023. 

Meanwhile, Tanzania are predicted to make a group stage exit from the competition, but securing a surprise three points on Tuesday would significantly boost their chances of making a shock progression into the knockout rounds.
