Burundi will not enjoy home advantage but will be eying three points when they host Ivory Coast in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The two nations meet in a Group F clash, Burundi being third and Ivory Coast leading. Below we have a prediction for this match.
For lacking an approved venue, Burundi will host this match in Morocco. After four matches in this group, they’ve banked seven points from two wins and a draw.
In December they took part in the CHAN qualifiers and now they resume competitive action, seeking a first win in five matches. They lost four of the said five matches and scored only one goal.
Ivory Coast also return to competitive action after taking part in the CHAN qualifiers in December. In their most recent competitive outing, they thrashed Chad 4-0 at home.
With that, they recovered from back-to-back losses against Sierra Leone and Zambia. Before losing those two matches, Ivory Coast had gone on a run of 11 matches without defeat.
That included their title run in the AFCON tournament they hosted. In World Cup qualification, they are unbeaten in four matches, winning three and keeping clean sheets in all four.
Their last match in World Cup qualification was against Kenya and it ended in a 0-0 draw.

Our Burundi vs Côte d'Ivoire Prediction
For the first time in their history, Burundi and Ivory Coast will be facing off in a World Cup qualification match. This will mark their fourth meeting in history, one having been a friendly game and the rest AFCON qualifiers. In all their previous meetings, Ivory Coast emerged winners and will be coming here as favorites again.
Burundi will not be helped by the fact they host this match away from home. We may also see another high-scoring match as these teams’ recent outings have mostly had at least three goals. Our prediction for Burundi v Ivory Coast is for Ivory Coast to win and over 2.5 goals.
