The Super Eagles come into the match under the guidance of interim coach George Finidi after the exit of Jose Peseiro upon the expiry of his contract.
The former winger will miss the services of star striker Victor Osimhen who is injured alongside William Troost-Ekong, Ola Aina, and veteran attacker Ahmed Musa for the same reason.
Other players who pulled out of the friendly are Tyronne Ebuehi, Gabriel Osho, and Taiwo Awoniyi.
Nigeria probable XI: Nwabali, Awaziem, Ajayi, Bassey, Onyemaechi, Ndidi, Chukwueze, Iwobi, Onyeka, Lookman, Iheanacho.
Just like their rivals, the Black Stars are under a new coach Otto Addo who was recently appointed as Chris Hughton’s replacement.
Addo will be without Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey who is gaining his fitness after an injury lay-off.
Orlando Pirates keeper Richard Ofori and West Ham United star Mohammed Kudus are nursing knocks which renders them unavailable for the fixture.
Ghana Probable XI: Ati-Zigi, Lamptey, Djiku, Salisu, Mensah, Majeed, Samed, A. Ayew, J. Ayew, Issahaku, Semenyo.
