Glittered with some of Europe's top talents, Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman is enjoying another stellar period, having scored two and assisted two in his opening three games.
Victor Osimhen played in front of the former Everton man in the 3-2 win over Tunisia, and the pair could once again be recalled to play together for this Round of 16 clash.

Mozambique must be credited for progressing to this stage with a group that contained two African powerhouses in the Ivory Coast and Cameroon.
Their only win came against Group F's other side in Gabon, eventually emerging winners by 3-2 in Marrakesh.
Sporting winger Geny Catamo has been a joy to watch so far at the competition, scoring against Cameroon and Gabon.

FourFourTwo's prediction
Nigeria 4-1 Mozambique
Nigeria have plenty of firepower to boast and should ease through into the last eight.
