Afcon matchday 8: live blog

Ivory Coast and Tunisia occupy the top two places in the group on the strength of fortunate wins in their opening games. With a chance to secure their place, both teams will be working hard today, hopefully making for an exciting match.

Algeria are the fancied team for the match versus Togo but Togo's opening match showed that they are not going to be pushovers. Who will come out on top?
