FIFA World Cup 2018: 5 potential upsets in the group stages

Denmark v Mexico - International Friendly

Nigeria vs Argentina, Matchday Three

England v Nigeria - International Friendly
England v Nigeria - International Friendly

Nigeria have a handful of players who are either currently playing in the Premier League or have past Premier League experience. The Super Eagles bring a high level of physicality capable of throwing any team off of their game and have enough of an attacking prowess to be dangerous in the final third.

With first-choice goalkeeper Sergio Romero injured and a backline leaving a lot to be desired, Argentina is going to once again need to lean on their attack for success.

If Argentina manage to secure qualification before this matchup, they may elect to rest their stars, giving Nigeria an even better chance of pulling off this upset.
