AFCON 2025: Super Eagles Will Beat Tunisia — Bassey

By DailySports Nigeria on December 27, 2025

Calvin Bassey is in confident mood going into Nigeria’s clash with the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia.

Nigeria and Tunisia will clash in a Group C fixture at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Saturday.

The highly anticipated encounter is slated for the Complexe Sportif de Fès.

The Carthage Eagles defeated Eric Chelle’s side 1-0 the last time both countries met in a Round of 16 tie at the 2021 edition.

Hatem Trabelsi’s side impressed in the 3-1 win over the Cranes of Uganda on Tuesday.

Bassey however believed they have the quality to beat the North Africans.

“Tunisia are a good team and we should expect a difficult game, but we have enough quality to win it,” Bassey predicted.

The encounter will kick-off at 9pm Nigeria time.
