Ivory Coast will take on Gabon in a crucial World Cup qualification game at Stade de Franceville on Tuesday.
The Elephants, currently leading Group F, have a one-point lead over the hosts. Among the other nations in the group, only Burundi could possibly cause Gabon an upset, as Gambia, Kenya and Seychelles are all eliminated. Ivory Coast are assured of at least a top-two finish but will aim to qualify directly.
