This game is crucial for Group D as it is the return of international football on the screens of fans throughout the continent.
Nigeria leads the group after two matchdays with four points, while Libya is in last place with just one point.
The Super Eagles have won both of their opening two qualifiers, demonstrating their excellent form.
They defeated Benin Republic 3-0 to start their campaign, then they drew goallessly with Rwanda the next game.
However, Libya has had difficulty during the group stages The Mediterranean Knights opened the season with a 1-1 draw against Rwanda at home, but they lost to Benin away from home, dropping them to one point in the standings.
Nigeria is in a good position to qualify for the AFCON tournament in 2025 because to their strong qualification performance.
In addition, the Super Eagles have a psychological and historical edge because they have defeated Libya in every previous meeting.
The Mediterranean Knights, on the other hand, want to go against the grain and try to at least draw in Uyo.
Even though Nigeria is the favorite, they won't have their best forward, Victor Osimhen, with him. Since joining Galatasaray, Osimhen has been on fire. The team's ability to attack may be put to the test in his absence.
