Africa Cup of Nations Clash: Assessing the Form and Potential of Nigeria and Tunisia Before Their December Showdown

The Africa Cup of Nations match between Nigeria and Tunisia is scheduled for December 28, 2025. Tunisia's recent form appears stronger, with a record of six wins, three draws, and one loss in their last ten matches. Their overall trend suggests an upward trajectory, characterized by a solid defense and fewer defeats, contributing to high morale. In contrast, Nigeria has a record of five wins, three draws, and two losses in their last ten matches. While their performance is acceptable, it shows more volatility, which could create some psychological pressure. In terms of squad availability, Nigeria has a fully fit squad, with key players in good condition, and no injury concerns. Nigeria's recent form shows they have won 50% of their last 10 games, scoring goals frequently, with over 60% of their matches featuring high scoring outcomes. Their home game against Benin saw them triumph 4-0, showcasing strong attacking capabilities and good morale. However, a recent draw against South Africa and a 0-1 defeat to Egypt in a friendly match revealed defensive weaknesses. Tunisia has sustained a strong performance, securing six wins, three draws, and one loss in their last ten matches, achieving a 60% win rate. Their probability of winning is high, approaching 67%.
