Amavubi of Rwanda head coach, Torsten Spittler, is hopeful that playing in front of home fans will help his team secure a historic victory over Nigeria.
Rwanda will host the Super Eagles in a 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Amahoro Stadium, Kigali, on Tuesday, marking the first official match at the newly refurbished venue.
The Amavubi kicked off their qualifying campaign with a 1-1 away draw against Libya last week. Spittler acknowledges the challenge posed by Nigeria but believes his team can capitalize on their home advantage.
