Mexico take on Nigeria at the AT&T Stadium in an international friendly on Sunday, with both sides being in contrasting form recently.
Mexico have been in strong form of late and are unbeaten in their last eight games across all competitions. Gerardo Martino's side will be going into the game off the back of a 0-0 draw against Guatemala last time out. They will look to bounce back with a win against Nigeria on Sunday.
Nigeria, on the other hand, have been in inconsistent form recently and are winless in their last three games across all competitions. Jose Peseiro's side will be going into the game off the back of a 1-1 draw against Ghana last time out. They will hope to turn things around with a win against Mexico on Sunday.
Despite this being a friendly, both sides will want to win the game and that should make for an exciting matchup.
Mexico vs Nigeria Head-to-Head
Mexico have slightly edged the recent head-to-head record between the two sides, having won one of their last three meetings, with the other two ending in draws.
Their solitary victory came in their 4-0 win in their previous meeting back in July 2021. Goals from Rogelio Funes Mori, Jonathan Dos Santos and a brace from Hector Herrera were enough to secure the win on the night.
