- The Black Stars need at least a scoring draw to be able to advance World Cup, completely transforming the recent fortunes of Ghana national football team.

- This follows their unimpressive showing at the African Cup of Nations last January where they crashed out at the group stage without winning a match.

- Since then, former international winger Otto Addo was appointed as the interim coach to take over Milovan Rajevac who was sacked following the tournament in Cameroon.

- Addo, who is part of the technical team of German side Borussia Dortmund, says the Black Stars want to win in Abuja instead of going for a draw.

- Ghana has no fitness concerns ahead of Tuesday’s match as youngster Felix Afena-Gyan declared himself fit after being taken off in Friday’s game with a thigh concern.

- The Black Stars will be chasing their fourth appearance at the World Cup.

- Nigeria must win their match against Ghana in Abuja on Tuesday to be able to qualify for the World Cup which would be their fourth successive appearance at the global tournament.

- The Super Eagles coach Augustine Eguavoen admits they must be at their best level to be able to defeat Black Stars even though they would be playing at home.

- Nigeria has some injuries worries as midfielder Innocent Bonke picked up a hamstring injury during Friday the game winger Samuel Chukwueze could be unavailable for the reverse fixture due to a muscular injury.

- The West African rivals were held to a goalless draw in Friday’s match at the Ohene Djan Sports Stadium in Kumasi, Ghana, which left the return encounter delicately poised.

- Both sides had good chances of winning the game but the two goalkeepers Joseph Wolacott and Francis Uzoho of Ghana and Nigeria respectively, were on top form to prevent the opponent from breaking the deadlock.

- Ghanaian youngsters Felix Afena-Gyan, Abdul Fatahu Issakahu and Mohammed Kudus were all denied by Uzoho’s heroics, while Wolacott pulled off an astonishing save to deny Leicester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho.
