Nigeria arrive in Warsaw carrying something they did not have at the start of May: a trophy. The Super Eagles beat Jamaica 3-0 in the Unity Cup final on May 31 with goals from Alhassan Yusuf in the third minute, Terem Moffi after the hour and Philip Otele in injury time. A 3-0 final. Clean sheet. Multiple scorers. That is exactly the kind of performance that puts a spring in a team's step before two June friendlies against Poland and Portugal.

Poland also missed out on the 2026 World Cup, so neither side has the pressure of a tournament on their minds. What Poland have is a home crowd at the PGE Narodowy and a point to prove in front of their own people. What Nigeria have is momentum, a coach who has been quietly building something worth watching, and three players who performed at Unity Cup level that nobody in European football prepared for. Sebastian Szymanski is Poland's danger man from midfield and he scores from distance. If Nigeria's press does not win the ball quickly in central areas, he will cause problems. But Nigeria are the better team right now. Back them.

Our Prediction and Where to Bet

Nigeria win 2-1. Moffi and Azeez both play from the start after strong Unity Cup performances. Poland score one on the counter but Chelle's squad is deep enough to hold and find a second. The Nigeria win market is the starting point. Add Moffi anytime scorer for extra value.
