Before participating in the CHAN tournament, the West African team had suffered consecutive losses in friendly matches. They were defeated 2-1 by Burkina Faso in November 2022, which ended their five-game unbeaten run, and were then thrashed 3-0 by Mauritania in their first match of 2023.

Ivory Coast’s last 5 matches

Despite their recent struggles, Ivory Coast can take pride in their solid start to the AFCON qualifiers, where they have won one and drawn one of their first two matches. They began their campaign with an impressive 3-1 win over Zambia in June, and followed it up with a goalless draw against Lesotho six days later, putting them at the top of Group H with four points from a possible six.

Comoros’s last 5 matches

Similarly, Comoros has not been in good form heading into Friday's match, as they have failed to win in six out of their last seven matches across all competitions. Their hopes of participating in the 2022 Africa Nations Championship for home-based players were dashed when they suffered a 1-0 aggregate defeat at the hands of South Africa last July.

In addition, they suffered consecutive friendly losses, first a 1-0 defeat against Tunisia on September 22, and then a 2-1 defeat against Burkina Faso at the Stade Pere Jego, barely one week later. However, despite their poor form, Comoros still has a chance to turn things around, as they have 12 points left to play for in Group H of the AFCON qualifiers. They are hoping to make a second consecutive appearance at the continental showpiece.

Ivory Coast vs Comoros H2H Stats

This upcoming match will mark the first time that the two teams will compete against each other. It's worth noting that in the last six games, Ivory Coast has emerged victorious in four games and suffered only one loss, albeit in their most recent match against Burkina Faso in November 2022, where they lost 2-1.

Meanwhile, Comoros have struggled, losing five out of their last six games and only managing to win once against Seychelles in the 2022 COSAFA Cup. It is interesting to note that all six of Comoros' recent matches were played away from home. On the other hand, Ivory Coast's last home game was in June 2022, where they beat Zambia 3-1 in the AFCON qualifier.
