Cote d’Ivoire return home for a Group F match against Gambia in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers for the Africa region. The Ivorians lead the group on 12 points, eight more than their visitors. We have the prediction for this match below.
Cote d’Ivoire remain unbeaten in this group. They are coming from a 1-0 away win against Burundi, maintaining their one-point buffer in the group.
The African champions are not only unbeaten in this pool, they’ve also kept five clean sheets in as many matches. This round six match already looks promising, having beaten Gambia in each of their last three earlier meetings.
Cote d’Ivoire lost just once in their last 11 matches in World Cup qualification.
While Cote d’Ivoire are flying high, Gambia are struggling in the lower reaches of this group. The visitors have managed just one win in their opening five matches in the current qualifiers.
They had the best chance in their last game but went from 2-0 up before ending it 3-3 at home to Kenya. Twice in that game, they lost the lead and this no longer looks promising for John McKinstry’s team.
The Scorpions lost 2-0 at home to Cote d’Ivoire and have so far won once in nine matches in World Cup qualification. They’ve already conceded three times in three of five matches in this group.

Our Ivory Coast vs Gambia Prediction
Gambia have a tough task ahead facing the African champions. This will be the third time the two nations face off in World Cup qualification. In each of those previous meetings, Gambia suffered defeat, conceding eight goals.
They failed to score in any of the three matches and this could be the case here as Cote d’Ivoire have done well in defence so far. The Elephants haven't conceded a goal in these qualifiers and boast a good run in recent World Cup qualifying matches. Our prediction for Cote d’Ivoire v Gambia is for Cote d’Ivoire to win and over 2.5 goals.
