Ivory Coast vs Zambia Prediction: Ivorian easy win

Côte d'Ivoire will face Zambia in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match. Check the teams’ conditions and expert betting tips. Several betting options are available!

Ivory Coast

Côte d'Ivoire wasn't impressive at last year's Africa Cup of Nations. The Ivorians finished top of the group with seven points from three games but were eliminated in the round of 16 when they lost on penalties to Egypt (0:0, 4:5). Côte d'Ivoire then played two friendlies against top European teams, losing to France (1:2) and England (0:3).

Zambia

The Zambian team didn't participate in the last Africa Cup of Nations, so they only played friendlies in the spring after failing to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. By the way, Zambia finished third in their quartet in the qualifiers. The Zambians started with a 1:3 defeat at the hands of Iraq before beating Congo 3:1 to finish with a 1:2 loss to Benin.

Expert Betting Tips

Bookmakers believe the home side is the favorite, and we agree with them 100%. The Ivorians are much stronger than the Zambians, and they have a much more powerful squad of players. We can offer at least two goals to Patrice Baumel's charges as the main bet. Prediction: Côte d'Ivoire's individual total over (1.5).
