Is Nigeria vs Tunisia on TV? Time, channel and how to watch all today’s Africa Cup of Nations fixtures



Nigeria have been one of the most impressive sides so far at this year’s Africa Cup of Nations. Wins over Egypt, Sudan and Guinea-Bissau saw them qualify for the knockout stages with maximum points – the only side to do so.

In the last 16, they come up against a Tunisia side who only qualified for the knockout stages by virtue of their win over Mauritania. Defeats to Mali and Gambia mean they are looked upon as one of the weakest sides left in the competition.

There is a strong English-based presence in the Nigeria side – with Leicester pair Kelechi Iheanacho and Wilfred Ndidi, Everton’s Alex Iwobi, Watford’s William Troost-Ekong and West Brom’s Semi Ajayi all regular starters for the Super Eagles.

They should have more than enough to come through this one and book their place in the quarter-finals. But with Ghana and defending champions Algeria crashing out in the group stage, anything is possible at this year’s tournament.

Here’s all you need to know ahead of the day’s big clash and the other fixtures on Sunday.
