Tue Nov 19 17:56:07 UTC 2024: ## Ivory Coast Aim for Victory Against Underdog Chad in AFCON Qualifier
**London, UK** – Defending African champions, Ivory Coast, face a crucial match against Chad on Tuesday, November 19th, in their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign. Despite their 2023 AFCON victory, Ivory Coast’s qualifying run has been underwhelming, leaving them second in their group after two losses and two draws in their opening five matches. Their recent 1-0 defeat to Zambia has added pressure to their upcoming encounter.
Their opponents, Chad, present a weaker challenge. Winless after five matches, Chad has only managed two points, most recently drawing 1-1 against Sierra Leone. While they’ve played home games in Abidjan, making them somewhat familiar with the environment, they are widely considered underdogs against the reigning champions.
Kick-off is scheduled for 4:00 PM UK time (11:00 AM US ET, 8:00 AM US PT). US viewers can catch the action on beIN Sports and their streaming platforms. The match will not be televised or streamed in the UK. Analysts predict a comfortable victory for Ivory Coast, suggesting a bet on Ivory Coast to win by a margin of at least two goals.
