Tanzania vs Ivory Coast Women Predictions - Ivory Coast backed in tight contest
Ivory Coast Women are favored to win their next WAFCON match against Tanzania Women, given their superior recent form—unbeaten in nine of their last 10 games and needing only a draw to qualify for the quarter-finals. Tanzania, despite an earlier shock win over South Africa, have largely struggled, failing to win six of their last eight matches. The key recommendation is to back Ivory Coast for the win, as their consistency is expected to overpower Tanzania's inconsistency in this crucial fixture.
- Ivory Coast Women unbeaten in 9 of their last 10 matches.
- Tanzania have struggled, winless in 6 of their last 8 games.
- Ivory Coast expected to secure win and qualify for quarter-finals.

Tanzania Women vs Ivory Coast Women Predictions
Both teams are in the mix to qualify, but Les Elephantes have looked a bit more solid than their rivals and should claim the upper hand.
- Ivory Coast are unbeaten in nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions.
- Ivory Coast have won two of their last three matches in all competitions.
- Tanzania have failed to win six of their last eight matches in all competitions.
Head to Head
Ivory Coast have two wins while Tanzania have been victorious once in three previous matches. They met in the qualifiers for the 2024 WAFCON, with each team claiming a 2-0 win in their home leg before the Tanzanians progressed on penalties.
Tanzania Women Form
Tanzania head into the clash off the back of a 2-1 defeat to Burkina Faso in their previous fixture. They fought back from a goal down to level through Aisha Mnunka and looked to be headed for a draw before conceding a late winner.
It was a return to reality for Tanzania, who had begun their campaign with a shock 2-1 victory over South Africa. Bakari Shime’s team are currently second in the table and could secure a place in the quarter-finals with a win on Tuesday.
The problem for Tanzania is that the win over South Africa was a rare result as they have been largely unconvincing lately. Twiga Stars are winless in six of their last eight matches in all competitions.
Ivory Coast Women Form
Ivory Coast were held to a 2-2 draw by South Africa in their previous Group B fixture. They threw away a two-goal lead from Grace Sery’s brace and were pegged back late in the contest.
While manager Reynald Pedros will be disappointed with the outcome, Ivory Coast remain unbeaten in the group. They are currently top of the table and only need a point in their final fixture to qualify.
Ivory Coast's showings at the WAFCON are an extension of their overall form heading into the tournament. They are unbeaten in nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions, winning two of the last three fixtures in this run.

Tanzania (3-1-4-2): Najiat Idrissa; Ester Maseke, Violeth Mwamakamba, Julitha Singano; Anastazia Katunzi; Enekia Lunyamila, Aisha Mnunka, Diana Msewa, Donisia Minja; Opah Clement, Stumai Abdallah.
Tanzania will be without forward Hasnath Ubamba, who is suspended after getting sent off last time out. Abdallah could be drafted in to partner Clement in attack while Mwamakamba should continue in defence.

Verdict
Ivory Coast will be disappointed with the outcome of their last outing and will look to set things right.
They have been solid in recent matches and should get the better of Tanzania, who remain unconvincing.
