Ivory Coast v Burkina Faso: kick-off time, TV channels and team news

Goal reports West African rivals Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso meet for a place in the Africa Cup of Nations 2025 quarter-finals. Ivory Coast, holders and three-time champions, relied on the Manchester United winger for their goals in a 1-0 win over Mozambique and a 1-1 draw against Cameroon.

The Ivorians also showed character in the final group game, clawing back an early 2-0 deficit to beat Gabon 3-2, with Istanbul Basaksehir left-back Christopher Operi supplying two assists. Burkina Faso will likely field an English-flavoured attack featuring Brentford's Dango Ouattara and Sunderland's Bertrand Traore, while Shakhtar Donetsk striker, 24-year-old Lassina Traore, could lead the line after scoring against Sudan.
