Howard Webb is the referee for this one. Drogba is expected to start on the bench once again.

It might be a quite even game on the whole, but I'll plump for a small win for Colombia. They have a few decent players in the side.

Enjoy the match!

Even game, Bony could get another goal, hard to call this one

In theory Columbia should win.

But in the world cup so far several teams have performed at a level much higher than their FIFA world ranking would indicate.
And for many years there is almost always an African team who do really well and progress to the latter stages.

Bacca is injured. Poor Columbia have lost Falcao and Bacca. Have to rely on Martinez.
Ivory Coast are really holding the flag for Africa now.

James Rodriguez impressed in the first game, I think Columbia will win but it'll be a close game, both these countries should progress to the next round.

I'm going to go 2-1 Colombia here

Ivory Coast: Barry; Boka, Bamba, Zokora, Aurier; Tiote, Serey, Y Toure (c); Gervinho, Gradel, Bony

Colombia: Ospina; Zuniga, Zapata, Yepes (c), Armero; Sanchez, Aguilar, Rodriguez; Cuadrado, Ibarbo, Gutierrez

1 change for Ivory Coast (Gradel in for Kalou) and none for Colombia after both teams won their first group games. Fredy Guarin is named on the bench for Colombia after serving a one-match suspension.

The introduction of Drogba lifted Ivory Coast against Japan, Colombia will he happy that he doesn't start, will probably play some part though.

And typical Scot, first thing he mentions is how good Pirlo was against England!


Looking forward to this match. Was reasonably impressed with Colombia in their first game but not so much with Ivory Coast.

Yeah, bring back Seedorf. RIo Ferdinand is a decent pundit too in my opinion. Not a fan of Hansen, just find him very smug.

I was very impressed with Colombia in their first game, and expect them to win this.

I hope Ivory Coast put in a good performance, just because the rest of the African nations look so poor they are the only hope for the continent to have a decent run.

Hope both teams go for win as not sure 4 points will be enough to get through this group

I agree. A lot of refs are allowing to coin to fall to the ground, refreshing to see Webb use the 'back of the hand' method.

That's the way with these continental refs, they're afraid to just come out and catch it. Gives confidence to the linesmen when they see Webb step up and pluck the coin out of the air like that.
