The likes of Morocco, Nigeria and Tunisia remain in a battle to make it out of Group B at the hotly contested U20 Africa Cup of Nations as Wednesday’s list of fixtures roll on.


As it stands, Morocco lead the way in Group B and will take on third-placed Tunisia at Suez Canal Stadium at 5:00pm CAT. Morocco are one point away from progressing to the knockout phase of the tournament, while Tunisia, who are one point behind their upcoming opponents, stand a chance of going through as the ‘best third-placed’ side with a stalemate.


Elsewhere, Nigeria are scheduled to take on Kenya at the 30 June Stadium in the adjacent fixture.


While Nigeria occupy second in Group B, level on points with Morocco, Kenya recorded back-to-back losses in their opening set of games at the showpiece.


Much like that of Morocco, Nigeria are delicately poised to make it out of the group, with Tunisia snapping at their heels in third.
