Ivory Coast face Gabon on Wednesday evening in the final round of Group F at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, with the battle for qualification and top spot still wide open.

The match will be played at the Grand Stade de Marrakech, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 GMT.

Ivory Coast head into the decisive fixture joint-top of the group with Cameroon, both sides sitting on four points after two match.

A win would guarantee the Elephants top spot and more favourable knockout draw while any slip up could open the door for Cameroon to finish first depending on the other result.

Gabon meanwhile are already eliminated after collecting zero points from their first two match. Despite their exit, they will be aiming to finish the tournament with positive performance and play the role of spoilers.

With strength through midfield and pace out wide, Ivory Coast are expected to control possession and apply early pressure.
