Ivory Coast vs Burundi: Top Free Betting Tips

This game has no significant meaning for either side but Ivory Coast could use this as preparation for the African Nations Championship.

Both Teams To Score Prediction: No

There is a huge difference in class between these two African national teams and we do not expect this friendly game to include goals from both sides. Ivory Coast are in an incredible form rigtht now and the team does not concede a lot of goals. They did in the last couple of games but those were against significantly bigger national teams. Burundi are not at that level.

Match Result Prediction: Ivory Coast to Win

Ivory Coast should be able to beat Burundi with a solid difference and without conceding a goal. It is a fact that this game will not be key for either side as it is a friendly match but when it comes to Ivory Coast, the players will be fighting for their spot in the ANC line-ups next January. We expect a strong performance.

Correct Score Prediction: 2:0 to Ivory Coast

There is a huge difference in class but neither side is one to have huge scorelines. Even against much bigger teams, Burundi keep it to 2-3 goals in their matches and they rarely concede more than twice. Ivory Coast, on the other hand, are not a high-scoring national team and we cannot expect to see more than two goals from them.

Ivory Coast vs Burundi: Form, Recent Games, and News

Ivory Coast Preview

After a disappointing performance in the Africa Cup of Nations in January, Ivory Coast improved a lot and it shows. The team is in its best form in years and has not lost in seven concecutive games. They also got qualified for the African Nations Championship, which will be played in January 2023, and the team is one of the hidden favorites. Their defense is solid and their attack has been scoring more than usual.

Burundi Preview

Burundi are a far smaller country and national team than Ivory Coast and this is not a side that you expect great achievements from. Burundi rarely ever win games and most of the results we see are defeats with 1:0. The team had a chance to qualify for the African Nations Championship too but lost in the semi-final qualifiers against Djibouti, and right now, this game is pointless. We do not even expect them to call out many of the better players in the country.
