The focus is on Group D today. The first two matches in the group have ended in 1-1 draws, leaving the Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Guinea and Mali absolutely even ahead of the final games in Malabo and Mongomo. Two more identical draws will mean the drawing of lots will be required to decide who progresses to the quarterfinals and in which order.
The drawing of lots would not be unprecedented, as that was required at the1988 Cup of Nations to send Algeria through to the knockout stage at the expense of the Ivory Coast, who had drawn all three of their matches.
The 2015 version of the Elephants will hope to win and thereby avoid a similar fate as they face Cameroon in Malabo.
Coach Herve Renard will again be without forward Gervinho, who completes a two-match suspension following his sending-off against Guinea, while midfielder Cheick Tiote will serve a one-game ban after being booked in both matches to date.
