AFCON 2025: Rwanda vs Nigeria – time and where to watch

Both countries have met 5 times
Rwanda has never won in any of the matches
Nigeria has won twice while others ended in draws

After a dominant performance against Benin Republic, Nigeria’s Super Eagles are set to face Rwanda in their second match of the AFCON 2025 qualifiers on Tuesday, September 10, 2024.

The match, which promises to be feisty, will be played at the 45,508-seat Amahoro Stadium in Kigali, with kickoff scheduled for 2:00 PM Nigerian time.

While Nigeria is grappling with some inconsistency, Rwanda has emerged as the group leader, and they will be keen to maintain their momentum by securing a vital win in front of their home crowd.

For the Super Eagles, this encounter is not only about securing qualification points but also about reasserting their dominance after recent struggles.

Historically, Nigeria and Rwanda have met five times in international football. The Super Eagles boast two victories, while the other three encounters ended in draws.

Rwanda, however, is yet to taste victory against Nigeria, but with their current form, they will be looking to change that narrative and send a strong message to their group rivals.
