Nigeria will square off against Saudi Arabia in an international friendly on Friday.
The game will be played at the Estadio Municipal De Portimao in Portugal.
The Super Eagles will use the game as part of their preparation for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in January next year.
Coach Jose Peseiro invited a 25-man squad for the game, with only Hatayspor forward Fisayo Dele-Bashiru as the only new player.
Peseiro is expected to field a strong XI as he continues to tweak his strategy ahead of the tournament.
GOALKEEPER: Francis Uzoho is expected to remain the number one shot-stopper for Nigeria.
DEFENDERS: Semi Ajayi should partner Kenneth Omeruo in the centre of defence, while Bright Osayi-Samuel starts at right back. Fulham defender Calvin Bassey will likely start at left-back because of Jamilu Collins and Zaidu Sanusi’s absence.
MIDFIELD: Wilfred Ndidi is expected to anchor the midfield, while Alex Iwobi, who missed Nigeria’s last game against Sao Tome and Principe, is expected to return to the starting lineup. Raphael Onyedika should complete the midfield trio to add some solidity and stealth.
ATTACK: Victor Osimhen is a definite pick and should be flanked by Samuel Chukwueze and Moses Simon.
