Nigeria vs Ivory Coast odds
For the first time since Egypt in 2006, we may finally see a host win the Africa Cup of Nations. The Ivory Coast haven’t always convinced at this tournament, losing their next two group matches after opening with a 2-0 win over Guinea-Bissau and only making it through the first knockout round on penalties after a 1-1 draw with Senegal. Yet, here they are after improving to beat Mali and DR Congo — 2-1 and 1-0, respectively — to reach this stage.
Nigeria were one of the sides to beat the hosts during that difficult group stage, sealing a 1-0 win thanks to a William Troost-Ekong penalty. That victory came after a 1-1 draw with Equatorial Guinea and set Nigeria on their way with a record of four wins and two draws — one of which saw them beat South Africa on penalties in the semi-finals — with just two goals conceded to reach this stage.
Despite these two African giants contesting 11 combined finals at this tournament, it’s the first time they’ll face each other at this stage, with Ivory Coast chasing their third title and Nigeria their fourth.
