Ahead of match day 5 of the 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifier against Nigeria, Benin is set to be without one of their reliable defenders, Cedric Hountondji.
The defender sustained an injury during the eve of the day 4 qualifier against the Amavubi of Rwanda.
Since then, the lanky defender has yet to return to action for the club and will be a notable absentee in the team when the list is out.
The Cheetahs are currently second in the group behind Nigeria with 6 points and a win against the Super Eagles will boost their chance of qualifying for the biennial competition.
