Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has pledged to ring the changes for his team's final Africa Cup of Nations group game against surprise package Madagascar.
The Super Eagles are guaranteed a place in the last 16 but need a point on Sunday in Alexandria to secure top spot in Group B and set up a meeting with a third-place finisher in the next round.
Speaking at a pre-match news conference in Alexandria, Rohr said: 'It's important to finish first of the group, it's better to play a team in third than second so we will do all to finish top.'
Madagascar are well positioned to reach the knockout stages in their debut in the competition after collecting four points from their opening two games.
Coach Nicolas Dupuis, who combines the role with his job at a French fourth division club Fleury, insists the Indian Ocean islanders aren't quite there yet.
He added: 'We're going out there to try and win knowing we're not favourites. One point will be enough for us to finish second.'
Nigeria forward Ahmed Musa said morale in the squad was good despite a training strike earlier in the week over unpaid bonuses.
He said: 'I don't think there's anything separating the team in camp. We have to fight for our country and we have to work very hard.'
