Henry Nwosu is confident that Nigeria's Super Eagles would over-run the host, Rwanda, tomorrow when both sides file out in the 2013 Nations Cup qualifier in Kigali.

The national team's former star, said no matter how Rwanda prepared to beat the star-studded Stephen Keshi-squad, they could never pose a big threat to the team.

Nwosu, a Member of Order of the Niger (MON), however, predicted an outright victory for the Eagles in Kigali.

'I know the match would not be an easy one, but I'm sure that Eagles would win 3-1. Nigeria would smile out of Kigali,'he said.

But while considering the Rwanda's ploy to play the match on a poor pitch tomorrow, Nwosu emphatically said the ploy would not negatively affect the Nigerian players.

'At worst, the match may end in barren draw if the hosts force our boys to play the match on a rough turf, but I didn't see Nigeria bowing to Rwanda.

With the quality of players in the team and the high level of determination they are taking to Kigali, I think we should expect the best result from the team,' he said.

Nwosu, who also expressed belief in the capabilities of the technical crew, said Keshi knew what to do to win the match.

'At times, we use experience to get result.
'In the team, we still have experience tacticians in Keshi, Daniel Amokachi and Ike Shorunmu.

They must have put heads together to find solution to how to beat Rwanda. Eagles would triumph in Kigali,'he said.
