Former Nigerian international Ifeanyi Udeze has cautioned the Super Eagles against complacency as they prepare to face Tanzania in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

Eric Chelle's side will host the Taifa Stars at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Friday, November 13, as they look to bounce back from their disappointing 3-0 defeat to Guinea-Bissau in their last qualifying encounter.

Speaking ahead of the match, Udeze warned the Super Eagles against underrating their opponents.

“It won’t be easy against Tanzania,” Udeze said on BRILA FM. “It will be tough, and I hope they will not underrate Tanzania.”

Udeze also lamented the team's poor attitude towards the game, pointing out that some players were yet to report to the team's camp.

“What is painful to me is that some players are yet to arrive in camp. With such an attitude, how are we sure they are taking this game seriously?

“I just wish them all the best and hope they get the three points.”

Nigeria will travel to Zanzibar for the return fixture four days later.
