Côte d’Ivoire vs Lesotho match preview

Côte d’Ivoire will host January’s Africa Cup of Nations, doing so for the first time since 1984, so are under enormous pressure to go all the way at that tournament.

Despite qualifying as hosts, Ivory Coast still take part in qualification, accumulating ten points from five fixtures so far, thereby guaranteed a top two finish.

Les Éléphants were hammered 3-0 by Zambia in their last outing, Serge Aurier opening the scoring with an own goal in Ndola, so Jean-Louis Gasset’s team will be determined to get back to winning ways in San-Pédro.

Lesotho meantime have just one point to their name, this coming when they held Côte d’Ivoire to a goalless draw in the reverse fixture, so the Crocodiles will not be making their AFCON debut next year.

Anything other than a victory for Ivory Coast at Stade Laurent Pokou would be a surprise.
