Nigeria vs Angola: AFCON prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

Nigeria have been installed as favourites to win Africa Cup of Nations as they prepare to face Angola tonight in the quarter-finals.

The Super Eagles made easy work of Cameroon in the last-16 stage, with former Everton youngster Ademola Lookman scoring both goals.

Angola, meanwhile, started the tournament slowly but have built up momentum, albeit against nations they should be beating in Burkina Faso, Mauritania and Namibia, and this will be their toughest test to date.

Nigeria vs Angola prediction

Nigeria have the better team on paper and the pedigree to match. I expected the Super Eagles to make a strong start as they look to put the game to bed in normal time and avoid the energy-sapping extra time.

Nigeria to win 2-0.
