It will be more disappointing to lose at home than to have lost in the away game, even though losing is not an option in any of these games.
Absolutely, losing is definitely not an option, both home and away, if we want to qualify. I like what i saw against Rwanda, we were not at our exceptional best, but we musn't forget that we have a new manager who was just coaching in his first competitive game for the country, so i believe the team will get better with more games they play together.

Zimbabwe is the next challenge and there is nothing more to say other than anything short of a win will prolly mean we won't be in the next world cup, so that is enough to tell us how important the three points are

Alot is at stake for the Zimbabwean - their government has put a bounty pool on the game against Nigeria; I'm hearing $10k per player if they manages to beat Nigeria in Akwa Ibom this week. That's enough motivation for them.

We haven't won against Zimbabwe since 2019 hope we can change that this week and maybe move to the 2nd place if Benin Republic loses to South Africa.
A lot is at stake for the Zimbabwean team, if their government will promise each of their players $10k each to humiliate the eagles at home. I believe this is a bigger test for the super eagles and their new coach that what happened with Rwanda, wasn't a stroke of luck. They need to proof to themselves and to every football loving Nigerians that they're the best team in this qualifier, losing at home to Zimbabwe, shouldn't be an option for them. If these new hungry set of super eagles have any plans to play at the world cup finals, they need to put up their very best performance this week to try and make that dream a reality.
