Uganda vs Nigeria Prediction and Betting Tips 30 December 2025

Nigeria aim to keep their 100% record at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations intact, but with the Super Eagles already clinching top position in Group C, we predict that they will play out a 1-1 draw with Uganda at Complexe sportif de Fes. The Cranes kicked off their AFCON campaign with a 3-1 loss to Tunisia, with the team sharing the spoils with Tanzania in their second group game. As Uganda have been scoring 1.5 goals per game of late, we predict that they will find the net in Tuesday’s clash. Both Awany and Capradossi miss out with injuries, but should not be sorely missed.

The African giants, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Tanzania (2-1) and Tunisia (3-2). Nigeria boss Eric Chelle, though, is expected to rest almost entire starting line-up as his men have already secured first place in Group C. You should bear in mind that the Super Eagles have been averaging 18 shots per game at the showpiece tournament in Morocco.

Nigeria are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Thursday’s clash. As Uganda should also be happy with one point from the match, we are tempted to place our bets on Draw. Additionally, BTTS and Half-Time Draw bets should be considered.

This Africa Cup of Nations 2025 match will be played on Tuesday 30 December 2025 at 16:00.
