The Super Eagles will take on Saudi Arabia on Friday at the Estádio Municipal de Portimão before facing Mozambique at the Estádio Municipal de Albufeira on Monday.
Since coach José Peseiro took charge of the three-time African champions, they are yet to win a friendly game and they would be willing to change that against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique.
