The Etalons U23 will look to complete the job against Zambia’s Chipolopolo on Sunday when the sides meet at the National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka in the second leg of their second-round CAN U23 qualifying tie.

Kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 local time, or 13:00 GMT.

Burkina Faso hold a narrow advantage after winning the first leg 1-0 on 11 November. A positive result in Lusaka would send them through to the third and final qualifying round, moving them closer to the CAN U23 finals.

Moussa Sanogo, known as Falcao, and his technical staff oversaw the team’s final training session on the eve of the match. The session focused mainly on tactical work, with the Burkina Faso players showing their determination to produce a strong performance in Zambia.

The final pre-match technical meeting took place at the National Heroes Stadium on Saturday, confirming the remaining organisational details. The Etalons will wear white, while the Chipolopolo will play in orange.

The match will be officiated by a Burundian refereeing team.
