Europa League: Three Super Eagles Clash as Porto Face Forest

Porto hosts Nottingham Forest in the first leg of UEFA Europa League quarter-final with three Super Eagles stars set to feature on Thursday. Hosts Porto will parade forward Terem Moffi and left-back Zaidu Sanusi, while Ola Aina will represent Nottingham Forest in the high-stakes encounter.

Sanusi has made six Europa League appearances for Porto this season with one assist, while Moffi—on loan from OGC Nice since January—has scored once in two appearances. Aina has featured six times for Nottingham Forest in European competition. This marks the second meeting between the sides this season, with Nottingham Forest winning 2-0 during October's league phase—making it their first-ever European encounter.

The quarter-final represents the final eight teams remaining in the competition, with the winner progressing toward the May final. Nigerian football fans have extra incentive to watch as three national team players face each other on the European stage.
