Defending Africa Cup of Nations champions Ivory Coast battle Cameroon in a clash of tournament heavyweights as both fight for control of Group F.
Both nations came into the competition among the favourites to win the trophy in Morocco, with each boasting plenty of talent including Premier League regulars Bryan Mbeumo, Carlos Baleba, Amad and Ibrahima Sangare.
However, they both struggled in their opening matches, with the holders scraping a 1-0 win past Mozambique and Cameroon beating Gabon by the same scoreline.
Those results mean that this is a huge game in Group F, with whoever wins this match taking control of the group ahead of the final round of matches, and the group winner likely facing an easier round of 16 match while the runner-up potentially faces another continental giant in South Africa.
Here’s everything you need to know.
