Colombia gained a comfortable 3-0 win in their opening game against Greece, and they are unlikely to change their starting line up from that team.
Meanwhile, the Ivory Coast will look to build on their 2-1 victory against Japan in their opening encounter last week. That win should not be underplayed, as Japan have a strong side this year and the African team did well to navigate their way past a tough opponent.
Ivory Coast coach Sabri Lamouchi will have some tough decisions to make, and must decide whether to recall captain and record goal-scorer Didier Drogba. However, to do so he would have to drop striker Wilfried Bony, which would be difficult to do seeing as he scored in the win over Japan. That means that the Ivory Coast boss may even decide to change up his formation to accommodate his star striker.
Colombia have been preparing for this game for some time. They played two of their three World Cup warm-up games against African opposition, perhaps knowing how important this game against the Ivory Coast would be. However, they only managed to draw against Senegal and Tunisia in those games, and defensively they looked vulnerable. Ivory Coast arguably have a strong front line than either of those two teams, so they could cause them significant problems in today's big Group C clash.
