Both teams have won the tournament previously. Nigeria, with three triumphs, are the fourth-most successful side in the tournament's history, while Ivory Coast are only one behind on two. The winner of the cup will get to hold it for a year-and-a-half, before relinquishing it for the 2025 edition in Morocco.
After successive rounds of near-exits, Ivory Coast finally registered a comfortable enough victory over DR Congo in the semi-final, courtesy of a goal from Borussia Dortmund's Sebastien Haller. Unbeaten Nigeria, meanwhile, pipped South Africa on penalties, surviving a scare by the narrowest of margins after the Bafana Bafana had equalised in the final moments of regular time.

Rivals forged by a common ambition, Ivory Coast and Nigeria have contested 28 games together, with their head-to-head finely poised at the time of writing. Ivory Coast have won nine, Nigeria have won nine too, while ten matches between the pair have ended in a draw. The winner on Sunday will tip the scales in their favour.
Nine of the 28 meetings between Ivory Coast and Nigeria have occurred in the Africa Cup of Nations, including the first time they shared the pitch back in March 1967. Nigeria have a slightly favourable record here, with their four wins - the last of which transpired earlier in the AFCON 2023 group stage - marginally above Ivory Coast's three.
