Five Nigerian players in England, Spain and Italy are facing some of the weekend's toughest challenges. Semi Ajayi from Hull City is set to take on English Premier League leaders Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. Ajayi has struggled, going eight games without a win in all competitions and seven in the league. Ola Aina, representing Forest, faces Manchester City, who have won nine of their first nine games.
Daniel Munoz is likely to replace Aina in the starting lineup. Valencia's Umar Sadiq will play against defending champions Real Madrid at Mestalla. Sadiq has scored twice in La Liga this season but is coming off an injury. Ademola Lookman of Atletico will face Barcelona in La Liga. Atletico has won their last seven league matches. Fisayo Dele-Bashiru from Lazio will oppose Napoli, who have lost their last two games.
