Ghana vs Nigeria live stream: How can I watch World Cup play-off live on TV in UK today?

Ghana and Nigeria both have the chance to bounce back from Africa Cup of Nations disappointment by booking their place at the 2022 World Cup.

The two sides face each other in a two-legged playoff, with the winner earning a spot in Qatar. The first leg takes place tonight in Ghana.

It was a miserable tournament for the Black Stars in Cameroon at the start of the year, as they crashed out in the group stage with just a single point from their three matches. Otto Addo has since taken interim charge of the national team, with Milovan Rajevac losing his job.

Nigeria had a slightly better time of things, looking impressive for large periods of the group stage, but they came unstuck against Tunisia in the last 16 and were knocked out.

They have missed just one of the last seven World Cups, with that absence coming in 2006, and they will be hoping to keep that impressive run going.

Ghana did not qualify for the 2018 tournament but played in the three previous to that, and will be eyeing up a return to football’s top table.
