Ivory Coast-Burundi: What time and on which TV channel can you watch the 2026 World Cup qualifying match?

The African champion is one step away from the 2026 World Cup . Ivory Coast hosts Burundi on Friday in Abidjan for an important duel in Group F.

The Elephants, who are firmly in the lead, can push their third-place opponents out of the race for first place. A sixth win in seven matches in this group would leave the Ivorians under threat only from their second-place opponent, Gabon, whom they will next face on September 8.

As a reminder, the group winners qualify directly for the World Cup. The four best runners-up will compete in an African play-off tournament, the winner of which will qualify for the intercontinental play-offs.

The Ivory Coast-Burundi match is scheduled to kick off at 9 p.m. this Friday, September 5. The match will be streamed live on the L'Equipe Live Foot platform.
