Ivory Coast vs Zambia- In the previous edition of the Cup of Nations, Ivory Coast was one of the group winners in the preliminary rounds. As a result, they cruised into the tournament’s knockout stages.
They did, however, have to face eventual finalists Egypt, which was a significant disaster for them. They had to say their goodbyes to the competition at the end of the encounter, as Mohamed Salah and his teammates won on penalties.
At the same time, the Zambians were unable to qualify for the main event, finishing second to last in their qualification group. Despite the fact that Botswana was in the same group as Zambia, the Zambians had allowed the most goals.
On top of that, they have a recent head-to-head record against this opponent that isn’t great.
Because of these factors, Ivory Coast is expected to win this Friday in front of their home fans.
Ivory Coast has won the most recent match by a score of 1-4. In the last 13 years, they have only lost once.
They’ve only preserved a clean sheet against his opponent once since 1992.
