A previously arranged match between the west African rivals at the same venue on Aug. 9 was called off hours before kick-off because of the London riots.

The newly-arranged game will be played days after both sides complete their 2012 African Nations Cup qualifying campaign. Ghana have a top-of-the-table Group I clash away in Sudan on Oct. 8 while Nigeria host Guinea in Group B on the same day.

Ghana also play in London next month, having fixed a date with Brazil at Fulham’s Craven Cottage on Sept. 6
