Tunisia will open their account in Group E on Tuesday at 17:00 GMT when they go one-on-one against Namibia at the Amadou Gon Coulibaly Stadium.
Key Highlights
Tunisia will hope that this opening match and the tournament will be different this time; they are consistent performers on the African continent without much to show for it, which they would want to fix in this year’s tournament.
Tunisia will rely on their midfielder Ellyes Skhiri, with the French-born player instrumental in controlling play, setting the tempo, and conducting the attacking rhythm of the team from his perch in the middle of the pack.
This is their fourth AFCON appearance for Namibia, and they have never gotten out of their groups in their three previous tournaments. The focus for the Brave Warriors will be to get a good start against the fancied Tunisia and bolster their chances of their maiden qualification for the knockout stages.
Namibia’s record in the final third has been poor; they have scored once in their last five international outings. This is especially relevant because the Carthage Eagles have kept four clean sheets leading up to Tuesday’s kickoff.
