Benin and Nigeria are set to face off in a crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match in June, with the game being moved to the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan. The Benin Football Federation’s failure to provide a suitable venue has led to this change, bringing the Super Eagles back to familiar territory where they previously played during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Super Eagles will first host South Africa at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo before taking on Benin in what promises to be an exciting encounter. Despite not yet securing a win in the qualifiers, Nigeria will be looking to turn their fortunes around after salvaging draws in their opening games against Lesotho and Zimbabwe.

This match is a must-watch for football fans around the world, as both teams battle it out for a spot in the prestigious World Cup. Stay tuned for all the action and drama as these African giants go head-to-head in a thrilling showdown.
