Ivory Coast will be looking to come out on top

Cameroon host Ivory Coast at the Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo in a 2022 World Cup qualifier on Tuesday, with the winner of the game progressing to the next qualification stage.

Cameroon are currently one point behind Ivory Coast at the top of Group D. Antonio Conceicao's side have been in good form of late, having won four of their last five games. They will know that they have to win their game against Ivory Coast on Tuesday if they want to progress.

Ivory Coast, on the other hand, are in the driver's seat and should be confident going into the game. Patrice Beaumelle's side are unbeaten in their last 10 games across all competitions and will be heading into the fixture off the back of a 3-0 win against Mozambique last time out.

With qualification for the 2022 FIFA World Cup on the line, Tuesday's fixture is sure to be an enthralling matchup.


Cameroon vs Ivory Coast Head-to-Head

Ivory Coast have dominated the recent head-to-head record between the two sides, having won three of their last five meetings, with Cameroon only winning one.

Ivory Coast came away as 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in September. A brace from Sebastian Haller was enough to secure the three points on the night, while Nicolas Ngamaleu scored a second-half penalty for Cameroon.
