Davido shared a betting slip on his Instagram showing that he backed Nigeria to reach the AFCON final.

His wager includes predictions that both teams will score and that the match will see more than 1.5 goals. The slip, placed on the betting platform Stake, carried odds of 6.97 at the time of the post.

On the post, Davido wrote: “Nigeria to make the finals and I’ll double my stake on my slip…. #stake,” signalling his strong belief in the Super Eagles’ chances. If all parts of the bet come true, the potential payout could be about $348,274.07 (roughly ₦500 million at current exchange rates).

The Super Eagles progressed to the semi‑final after a 2‑0 victory over Algeria in the quarter‑final, building momentum in the tournament and raising hopes for another strong run to the title. Nigeria aims to win its fourth AFCON crown and reach the final for the first time since 2013.

This is not the first time Davido has placed a significant bet on the national team. Earlier in the tournament, he reportedly made a successful wager on Nigeria’s Group C match against Tanzania, which paid out about $96,564 after the Eagles won 2–1.

Fans and followers have reacted to Davido’s bet with mixed comments online, with some cheering his support for the national team and others questioning large wagers ahead of major matches.

Regardless, his post has added to the excitement and national interest around Nigeria’s crucial semi‑final clash.

The Super Eagles will face a strong Morocco squad that has impressed at the tournament and enjoys support from the home crowd, making Wednesday’s showdown one of the most anticipated fixtures of the 2025 AFCON.

Full coverage and live updates are expected as the match unfolds, with millions of Nigerians following closely to see if the Eagles can secure a place in the final.
