The Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo and the Moshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja will serve as the home venues for the Super Eagles' 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches, according to the Confederation of African Football (CAF).



The qualifiers will pick back up next month, with the Super Eagles scheduled to play a doubleheader against Guinea-Bissau, another team from West Africa.

With six points after winning their first two matches against Sierra Leone and Sao Tome and Principe, Jose Peseiro's team is in first place in Group B.

24 nations will have to play their home matches at a neutral site because CAF did not approve of their home stadiums.

The two largest nations in North Africa, Egypt (six) and Algeria (five), have the most approved stadiums.

In Cote d'Ivoire, the AFCON 2023 will take place.
