The third round of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers features a clash between Burkina Faso and Burundi at Stade du 4 Août on Thursday evening.
Both teams arrive at this match with differing results; Burkina Faso achieved a solid victory over Malawi in their previous outing, while Burundi narrowly lost to Senegal.
Match Overview
Following their last-minute draw against Senegal four days earlier, Burkina Faso recorded their most impressive performance of 2024 with a 3-1 win against Malawi on September 10.
In his first international start since June, Lassina Traore scored twice in the first half, putting Brahima Traore’s squad firmly in control before Hassane Bande sealed the victory with a penalty just after the hour mark.
This victory marked Traore’s first managerial win since taking over from Hubert Velud, who led the team during a disappointing AFCON campaign that ended with a last-16 exit to Mali.
With some ground to cover in their World Cup qualifying group, Burkina Faso is eager to take a significant step toward qualification for next year’s continental tournament in this match. As they face Burundi in the first of two crucial encounters just three days apart, the hosts understand that a victory would place them on the brink of securing their place and will aim to approach the match aggressively.
On the other hand, Burundi is looking to rebound after a spirited performance against Senegal, which ended in a narrow 1-0 defeat on September 9 at Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe.
Ismaila Sarr scored the decisive goal 19 minutes before full time, ending a four-match unbeaten streak for Etienne Ndayiragije’s squad.
This loss marked Les Hirondelles’ first competitive defeat since the start of the year, with earlier losses to Algeria and Madagascar occurring in friendly matches in January.
Having gone over two years without an away victory, Burundi travels to Ouagadougou seeking to secure their third consecutive win on foreign soil and get their AFCON qualifying campaign back on track.
