CANADA VS NIGERIA PREDICTION

Canada’s offence simply has not shown up so far across the competition and they need to find ways to score more consistently in this match. Nigeria could only put up 54 points against France and the Canadians will be confident of restricting them to a total they can exceed, but it requires good decision making and more clutch attacking plays.

Nigeria have already done so well over the course of this Olympics and after beating Australia, knows what it takes to get over the line in these pressure matches. But Canada haven’t shown enough of their best and you feel a really big performance from them is due, which would make it very tough for Nigeria. In the end, it would be no surprise to see Canada edge Nigeria out.
