No Nigerian television station will broadcast the game, Pulse has confirmed. The reliable SuperSport has not broadcast any Super Eagles' AFCON qualifier since they halted the broadcast of content from the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

This happened because CAF terminated the 12-year rights of Lagardere as their exclusive agent for the sale of marketing and media rights.

SuperSport bought their rights from Lagardere which makes it impossible for them to broadcast CAF’s content.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) will stream the game on thier NFF TV.
