TEAMS PREVIEW
Nigeria A Preview
Nigeria A come into this game after suffering their first defeat of the tournament against the senior Nigeria side in their previous outing. Batting first, Nigeria A were bowled out for 112 in 19.2 overs before Nigeria chased the target down at 113/8 in 19.1 overs to win by two wickets.
Despite that defeat, Nigeria A remain in a strong position in the competition after winning their first three matches. Their upcoming match is particularly important because Nigeria A are still at the top end of the standings and will be looking to consolidate their position after dropping points in their most recent game. Another victory would strengthen Nigeria A's position before the final phase.
Olayinka Olaleye has been one of Nigeria A's important batting contributors. He made 25 in the opening victory over Sierra Leone and followed it with an unbeaten 31 off 19 balls against Ghana. In the most recent game, Elijah Jimmy's 51 off 35 provided the bulk of Nigeria A's scoring.
With the ball, Sylvester Okpe has been the key wicket taker, with 8 wickets taken on a 9.25 average, followed by Mustapha Yusuf with 7 wickets and Elochukwu Ndubudem with 6 wickets on a 9.33 average.
Nigeria A possess a group of all rounder players with enough bowling depth to pose a challenge. They will need their key players to perform if they are to once again win against Sierra Leone.
Key Players: Elochukwu Ndubudem, Olaleye Olayinka, Mohameed Taiwo, Mustapha Yussuff, Sylvester Okpe.
Nigeria A Predicted Playing XI:
Elochukwu Ndubudem, Olaleye Olayinka, Mohameed Taiwo, Sylvester Okpe, Elijah Jimmy, Miracle Solomon, Sesan Adedeji, Hosannah Omonkhobhio, Bright Nyong, Gafar Kareem, Folajimi Owolabi.

Sierra Leone Preview
Sierra Leone enter the match on the back of an important victory over Ghana. In their previous game, they posted 120/5 in a rain affected contest before Ghana reached 84/2 in 15 overs.
Sierra Leone won the match by 13 runs under the DLS method, with Abu Kamara producing the innings of the match with a superb 57 off 42 balls, including two fours and three sixes. Alusine Turay also contributed 30 from 21 deliveries.
That victory has given Sierra Leone momentum going into their second meeting with Nigeria A. In their first meeting of the tournament Sierra Leone lost to Nigeria A, therefore this upcoming matchup carries considerable importance for Sierra Leone. A win would give them another valuable set of points and put further pressure on Nigeria A at the top of the table.
Abu Kamara is currently the major batting figure for Sierra Leone in the tournament. He has scored a total of 86 runs in 3 matches at an average of 28.66. Alusine Turay is another key player, having scored 58 runs with a strike rate of 131.81.
In the bowling department, George Sesay has taken the most number of wickets (5) in three matches at a 5.45 economy. Nitesh Hooda claimed three wickets in Sierra Leone's latest victory over Ghana and his four over spell produced figures of 3/26.
Key Players: Abu Kamara, Alusine Turay, George Sesay.
Sierra Leone Predicted Playing XI:
Abu Kamara, Alusine Turay, George Sesay, Raymond Coker, Yegbeh Jalloh, Lansana Lamin, Vincent Ateak, Obed Harvey, Nitesh Hooda, Judah Solomon, Philip Yevugah.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Lagos has seen intermittent rain interrupt the last couple of rounds of matches, and there remains a chance of showers around this fixture, which could again bring the DLS method into play if overs are lost.
NIGA vs SLE Pitch Report
The Tafawa Balewa Square Cricket Oval has generally rewarded sides who bowl first and apply early pressure, with totals in this tournament regularly settling in the 65-115 range. Sierra Leone were bowled out for 80 chasing 114 against this same Nigeria A attack in the tournament opener, and disciplined bowling in the powerplay is likely to again be the key to victory.
Score Prediction
If Nigeria A bat first: 110-125 runs
If Sierra Leone bat first: 95-115 runs
Toss: To Bowl
Given the tendency for this ground to assist the bowlers early and the low-scoring nature of matches so far, the side winning the toss is likely to field first.
Toss Prediction : Sierra Leone to win the toss.
NIGA vs SLE
Winning Prediction
Nigeria A go into this match having suffered their first defeat of the tournament, but they still hold a psychological edge, having already beaten Sierra Leone in their opening fixture. Sierra Leone arrive with far more momentum, though, on the back of back-to-back wins over Ghana, and their bowling attack looks well-placed to trouble a Nigeria A batting order. We predict a closely fought contest, with Nigeria A edging it once again.
