The bet predicts that both Nigeria and Tanzania will score, with a possible payout of $96,564, valued at about N140 million.
The Super Eagles, who are three-time African champions, are heading into the match as favourites after finishing second in the last AFCON tournament.
However, confidence around the team has been cautious following Nigeria’s failure to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which has reduced expectations among fans.
