Super Eagles Technical adviser Gernot Rohr has rung three changes in the side that lost to Croatia as Eagles look set to take on Iceland this evening.
Chelsea defender Kenneth Omeruo plays at three-man defence with Leon Balogun and William Troost-Ekong, Ahmed Musa comes in for Odion Ighalo, with Victor Moses moving back into the right wing back.
Francis Uzoho has kept his place in the Nigeria starting XI against Iceland at the Volgograd Arena, but Gernot Rohr does make three changes from the team that lost to Gernot Rohr.
Captain John Obi Mikel starts at attacking midfield again with Wilfred Ndidi and Oghenekaro Etebo, whilst Brian Idowu also retains his place in the left back position.
Former Manchester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho completes the lineup spearheading the attack.
Nigeria Starting XI (3-5-2 Formation): Uzoho; Ekong, Balogun, Omeruo, Moses, Mikel, Ndidi, Etebo, Idowu Iheanacho, Musa
