Equatorial Guinea - Ivory Coast: Form Analysis
Equatorial Guinea have emerged as the unexpected standout in this year's tournament, currently leading their group and holding a promising chance of advancing to the round of 16. If they manage to avoid defeat in this match, it would secure them a guaranteed top-two finish. Nevertheless, this task won't be an easy one, as they are facing the tournament hosts who are fighting fiercely for survival in the Africa Cup of Nations. The National Thunder's attacking prowess has been exceptional. In the last outing, Captain Emilio Nsue achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the first player to score an AFCON hat-trick since 2008 when they beat Guinea-Bissau 4-2. That followed a 1-1 draw with the Super Eagles in match one. The equation is simple for the National Thunder, and they will look to continue their clinical ways, having scored first in each of their last four matches.
Ivory Coast kicked off the competition impressively with a 3-0 victory over Guinea-Bissau, but a recent 1-0 loss to Nigeria has placed them in a precarious position. To avoid the risk of becoming only the second AFCON host nation in 15 consecutive editions to be eliminated in the group stage, the Elephants must secure three points. Failing to secure a win on Monday would force the Ivorian team to rely on the hope that they can qualify as one of the four best third-placed teams across the competition. In their past encounters at the Africa Cup of Nations, these two teams met twice, with Ivory Coast emerging victorious on both occasions. It would be a significant upset to witness the AFCON giants exit the competition, but their safe passage into the knockout stages is contingent upon securing a victory.

Equatorial Guinea & Ivory Coast Squad Analysis
Emilio Nsue delivered an outstanding performance for Equatorial Guinea, scoring a hat-trick in their victory over Guinea-Bissau, and there will be high expectations for him to replicate such a stellar performance once again. The National Thunder have no injury concerns heading into this match and are expected to name an unchanged 11.
Sebastian Haller has yet to make an appearance in the tournament for the host nation, and a decision is yet to be made regarding his fitness and involvement in this match. Additionally, Serge Aurier came off the pitch in the match against Nigeria, although it remains unclear whether this was due to injury at this stage.
