Iceland play it out nicely from the back and swing it out left to Rurik Gislason, who tries to knock it past his man but there's a collision and it's out for a goal-kick.

We know exactly what we'll get from Iceland - they're compact and they're set-piece specialists.

There seems to be a genuine connection between the team and the fans - I've never experienced it before.

Nothing doing from the corner as Nigeria keeper Uzoho comes out and claims.

It is Gylfi Sigurdsson to strike...a lovely curling effort but Francis Uzoho sees it early and gets across to parry it away for a corner.

Iceland attack down the right trying to get in behind and win a throw level with the Nigeria area.

Aron Gunnarsson to send in the long throw...

Nigeria get a head on it and clear briefly before Brian Idowu is penalised for a push.

This is in Gylfi Sigurdsson territory...

Ah yes, as Peter Odemwingie says, former Arsenal striker Nwankwo Kanu paid the Super Eagles a visit last night.

Can he inspire them here?

Here we go...

Fifa president Gianni Infantino is in attendance for this one.

Will he take part in the viking clap? Probably can't.

Captains John Obi Mikel and Aron Gunnarsson have shook hands in the middle. We'll be under way soon...

Victor Moses is powerful - he's got the ability to break through Iceland's low block. He can be key for Nigeria today, because he's the one who will get to the byline and get a cross in.

Nigeria resplendent in their snazzy black and white track tops, Iceland in all blue.

Here come the national anthems. Kick-off just over five minutes away.

Iceland are a complete team, in terms of their togetherness. They play a rigid 4-4-2 - everyone knows their jobs - and they only press when they have to. It'll be interesting to see if they go for it today - being high on confidence - so they might change up their style a little bit.

In their opening defeat, Nigeria were too conventional, the shape of the team, the passing was good but there was not much creativity.

They didn't play their game, Croatia were good but they didn't make the things that make African teams good - scaring other teams.

Danny Murphy
Former England midfielder on BBC One

Nigeria were playing against a really good Croatia side in their first game - and we saw how good they are last night - so I think we have to judge Nigeria on today's performance.

Who's having a worldie? Who's having a shocker?

Iceland were really compact, they're physically strong, they looked strong at the Euros and they have performed.

They are the sort of team you need to watch out for because they can go far as they're fresh.

What I like with what they are doing is they are so close, so compact that even if you make a mistake there is someone there. It's amazing.

No bugs on Iceland.

I suppose Nigeria couldn't have come up against a more stubborn opposition in their first game. So today I'm hoping to see an energetic performance, lots of flair and lots of excitement. They know they weren't good enough in the first game, but now they have the chance to put it right.

Who do you fancy in this one?

Any Argentina fans out there? What are you hoping for?
