LiontipsZambia vs Ivory Coast. Africa Cup of Nations Qualification Match Prediction and Bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Zambia are on a three-match unbeaten streak, with wins over Sierra Leone (3-2) and Chad (1-0), and a goalless draw against Chad. The upcoming opponent is of a completely different caliber, so it will be difficult to compete for points in this encounter, at least in theory.
Last year the teams played each other at this stadium, and then the hosts of the upcoming match confidently won with a score of 3:0. This time it will be a great achievement if they manage to at least not lose.
Disqualifications and injuries
There are no injured players in the team.
Interesting trends for betting
- Zambia are unbeaten in their last three matches.
- Zambia have failed to even score in three of their last five matches
Estimated line-up: Nsabata - Mhande, Mwape. Chongo, Chisala - Bande, Sakala, Tshepesi - Kangwa, Musonda. Kampamba.
Current form
Ivory Coast is one of the strongest teams in Africa, which is striving to regain its former glory. In the current qualifying tournament, the team has demonstrated impressive results. The exception is the last match, when there was a defeat to Sierra Leone (0:1), and before that there was an 11-match unbeaten streak. Despite the failure in the last match, bookmakers still put the guests as the favorites, and it is difficult to disagree with this assumption.

1.80Tip and bets
With all due respect to Zambia, Ivory Coast is much stronger at the moment. Plus, the visitors are clearly looking to make up for their 0-3 defeat on this field last year. If the team doesn't play at their usual level, they could win the match, possibly by a few goals.
Our prediction is a victory for Cote d'Ivoire with odds of 1.75
Bet on total
When the game doesn't go according to the Zambians' script, the footballers start to fail in many ways. Considering the form of the upcoming opponent, we are inclined to believe that in the upcoming match everything will be exactly like that, that is, the hosts will not even be able to score.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 1.54
Bet on corners
Looking at the form of the Ivory Coast, it becomes clear that this team is capable of winning not only by score, but also by the number of corner kicks.
Our prediction is that Ivory Coast will take more corners with odds of 1.62
