Sides to meet in the Afcon on Saturday.
Tunisia are preparing to take on Ivory Coast in their Africa Cup of Nations Group D clash in Rustenburg.
Tunisia are looking good for qualification, partly thanks to a dramatic injury-time winner against Algeria on Tuesday.
However, they face a stern test in their next match, a showdown with one of the tournament favourites, Ivory Coast.
The Tunisians know that if they can carve out a result against Didier Drogba and Co they will progress to the second phase of the tournament.

According to striker Harbaoui Hamdi, they know what they are up against.
“I’m not going to lie, we have committed ourselves fully in preparation for this match against Ivory Coast,” Hamdi said.
“They are a team with many stars, but we will not overestimate them or underestimate them either. They beat Togo, but it was not a very good game. We are preparing our game very well and I hope we approach the game with the same spirit that we did against Algeria.”
Ivory Coast won the last encounter between the two sides 2-0 in a friendly international a year ago.
