Tunisia will face Gambia at the Stade Olympique Hammadi Agrebi on Monday in their final game of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The home side have enjoyed a solid AFCON qualifying campaign and have now clinched a 17th consecutive appearance at the final tournament as they sit atop Group A with 10 points.
They beat Madagascar 3-2 in their last match, taking the lead twice in the first half and losing it on both occasions before Nice's Ali Al-Abdi headed home a late winner to help the Eagles of Carthage confirm their spot in Morocco next year.
Gambia meanwhile have failed to impress in their qualification campaign so far and will now miss out on next year's AFCON after back-to-back appearances at the continental showpiece. They looked set to be headed towards a point against Comoros last time out, but were beaten 2-1 as their opponents snatched all three points late in the game.
The visitors are now set to finish the group in third place but will be targeting maximum points next week as they look to build some momentum for their FIFA World Cup qualifiers in March.
Tunisia vs Gambia Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- There have been just three meetings between Tunisia and Gambia with the visitors winning two of those games while the visitors have won the other.
- The visitors have managed just one clean sheet in their last 13 games across all competitions.
- The Eagles of Carthage are the highest-scoring side in Group A with a goal tally of seven.
- The Scorpions were ranked 128th in the latest FIFA rankings and now sit 81 places behind their midweek opponents.
Tunisia vs Gambia Prediction
Tunisia are on a run of back-to-back unbeaten outings and have lost just one of their last eight games across all competitions. They suffered a shock 1-0 loss to Comoros in their last home game marking their first home defeat since June 2021 and they will now be looking to put out a response next week.
Gambia meanwhile have won just one of their last six matches. The sheer gulf in class and quality between the two teams coupled with their contrasting forms could see the visitors lose this one.
Prediction: Tunisia 2-0 Gambia
