Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro is expecting a difficult game against Saudi Arabia.
The three-time African champions will take on Roberto Mancini’s men in an international friendly at the Estadio Municipal de Portimao on Friday (today).
Saudi Arabia are winless in their last seven outings but Peseiro is not prepared to underrate the Green Falcons.
“Saudi was the last team to beat Argentina so I expect a hard match and also a good match for our team and we will start on the front foot against them,” the Portuguese said in his press conference.
Tonight’s encounter will kick-off at 5pm Nigeria time. READ ALSO:
