NPFL Updates in-house analyst, Mr Best, has explained the reason why Napoli striker Victor Osimhen needed to reignite his goal-scoring form ahead of the Guinea-Bissau clash.
   According to the seasoned football-head, Osimhen need to have his name on the score sheet when Napoli welcome Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday night. Eintracht Frankfurt trailing by two goals, will visit the Diego Armando Maradona stadium for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League knockout stages against Napoli.
Away in Germany, Osimhen fired from close range to help Napoli secure a crucial win.
With AFCON double-header qualifiers against Guinea-Bissau just few weeks away, Osimhen has suddenly gone blank in front of goal.

Why Osimhen Need To Score Goals For Nigeria:
“He(Osimhen) need to start scoring goals. I mean he should score tonight,” he said when asked about the form of the striker in front of goal.
“He has gone two games without a goal, it’s normal. But if he doesn’t score today, then it’s not normal again.”
“If Nigeria would stand a chance against Guinea-Bissau on 24 March, then Osimhen and his colleagues in the Super Eagles attack need to score goals this weekend. That will somehow instill fear in the minds of the Djurtus players,” he added.
Ademola Lookman recently lost form going more than four matches consecutively without scoring a single goal.
Nigeria will come up against the Djurtus of Guinea-Bissau on 24 and 27 March. This, is in preparation for the next edition of the AFCON. The Wild Dogs are bent of beating Nigeria.
The first fixture will take place in Nigeria at the Moshood Abiola Stadium Abuja on 24 March. Three days later, the Super Eagles will travel to Morocco for the retuning leg. Because for now no stadium in Guinea-Bissau met CAF international standard.
