The Super Falcons will take on the Republic of Ireland on Monday, in the final group game of the FIFA Women's World Cup. Let's see how the Nigeria Super Falcons could potentially line up against their Irish opponents. This match kicks off at the Suncorp Stadium on Monday July 31st, at 11:00 BST.

Super Falcons vs Ireland probable lineups

Republic of Ireland

Goalkeeper: Courtney Brosnan
Defenders: Niamh Fahey, Louise Quinn, Megan Connolly
Midfielders: Aine O'Gorman, Denise, O'Sullivan, Ruesha Littlejohn, Katie McCabe
Strikers: Sinead Farrelly, Kyra Carusa, Marissa Sheva

Nigeria Super Falcons

Goalkeeper: Chiamaka Nnadozie
Defenders: Ashleigh Plumptre, Blessing Demehin, Osinachi Ohale, Michelle Alozie
Midfielders: Halimatu Ayinde, Christy Ucheibe, Ifeoma Onumonu, Toni Payne, Francisca Ordega
Strikers: Asisat Oshoala

It's important to point out that Vera Pauw adopted a 3-4-3 formation in the Republic of Ireland's first two matches, and she's expected to use the same formation today. Kyra Carusa should lead the attack, with Sinead Farrelly and Marissa Sheva on the flanks. Additionally, Heather Payne is a doubt for this match; she missed Ireland's last match after picking up an injury in their first game.

On the other hand, Deborah Abiodun is still sidelined for the Super Falcons due to a red card. Randy Waldrum's girls are expected to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation like they did in their first two games, with Asisat Oshoala leading the charge.
