Premier League players Victor Moses and John Obi Mikel are two of the highlight starters in tonight's World Cup group match between Nigeria and Iran.
The duo, of Liverpool and Chelsea, will shoulder plenty of the burden for the Super Eagles as they look to get an early win under their belt in Group F.
Chelsea's Kenneth Omeruo, meanwhile, starts in defence for the African side.
Iran, widely considered the group underdogs, have Fulham's Ashkan Dejagah and Reza Ghoochannejhad of Charlton Athletic in the starting XI.
