The Super Eagles are expected to make a huge climb in the next FIFA rankings following the 3-1 defeat of Algeria.
Following the 3-1 defeat of Algeria on matchday 2 of the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, the Super Eagles of Nigeria
are set for a massive climb on the FIFA monthly world rankings for the month of November.
Nigeria is currently ranked 60th in the world and 11th in Africa, but all that is about to change when the rankings for November are released on the 24th, with the Super Eagles set to rise 10 places to rank 50th in the world and 7th in Africa, overtaking Ghana, Cameron, Mali & Congo.
According to the November rankings that will be released, it is expected that Algeria, following their 3-1 bashing at the hands of Nigeria, will drop 3 places to 38th in the world & 5th in Africa, while Senegal will most likely become Africa's no 1, toppling Cote D'Ivoire.
THE PROBABLE AFRICAN RANKINGS FOR NOVEMBER 2016:
1. Senegal
2. Tunisia
3. CIV
4. Egypt
5. Algeria
6. Congo DR
7. B/Faso

Meanwhile for the world rankings, Argentina are set to remain unmoved as the World’s number 1, but rivals Brazil will almost certainly topple Germany to number 2 spot, while Chile moves up three places to 4th position behind the Germans.
Belgium, Colombia, France, Portugal, Uruguay & Spain (5th -10th) will likely complete the world's top 10 in that order.
