Okoye, Iwobi and Lookman to Start as Super Eagles Target Win Over Jordan

Okoye, Iwobi and Lookman to Start as Super Eagles Target Win Over Jordan — 1 of 5
1 / 5

Coach Eric Chelle is set to field a 4-2-3-1 line-up in Antalya. Maduka Okoye will patrol the goal, backed by a back four of Osayi-Samuel, Ajayi, Ogbu and Onyemaechi. Wilfred Ndidi and Alex Iwobi will anchor the midfield. Up front, Simon, Chukwueze and Lookman will support lone striker Akor Adams as Nigeria seeks to build on its Iran victory. Jordan coach Jamal Sellami has moulded a disciplined, counter-attacking side. Both teams have one win apiece in friendlies, but the higher-ranked Super Eagles start as favourites.

With Iwobi and Ndidi anchoring midfield, do you think that balance will let Lookman and Chukwueze flourish in attack?

I'll admit it could work; their solid midfield cover really does let forwards express themselves freely.

Putting three creative players behind a lone striker might leave gaps on the wings if Jordan presses aggressively.

I'm not convinced Maduka Okoye is ready for high-pressure moments against more physical opponents, after limited senior caps.

They should focus on quick transitions after winning possession, using Simon's pace to catch Jordan's defence off guard.
