Guinea-Bissau winger, Carlos Mane has warned the Super Eagles they must be ready for a difficult contest on Monday.
The Djurtus lost their opening two games at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations to hosts Cote d’Ivoire and Equatorial Guinea.
Baciro Cande’s side have a slim chance of progressing into the Round of 16 going into the game against the three-time African champions.
Mane however said they will do their best to stop the Super Eagles.
“We have zero point in the competition but we have to fight to get a good result. We will go into the game with a strong mentality, we will try to win,” Mane told press conference in Abidjan on Sunday.
“We know Nigeria very well. They have a good coach (Jose Peseiro) He was my coach at Sporting Lisbon four years ago.
“It’s going to be difficult to beat Nigeria, but we will play for our country and our family. We will surely make things difficult for them.”
Guinea-Bissau are yet to record a win at the AFCON.
