Burkina Faso could name an unchanged XI from the one that started the 1-0 win over Cape Verde as they look to finish in the top two. Bertrand Traore is absent owing to his positive COVID-19 test, but should be back for the last-16 should they progress. Dango Ouattara, Soualio Ouattara and Saidou Simpore all missed the victory after their positive COVID tests, but hope to be available here. Yared Bayeh is available following his ban and should return to the heart of the defence. Dawa Hotessa opened the scoring in Ethiopia's eventual 4-1 loss to Cameroon and should start on the left again.
Burkina Faso will be confident of following up their won over Cape Verde with victory in Monday's final group game. They beat Ethiopia 4-0 the last time these met, albeit back in 2013. Ethiopia were unable to build upon their narrow 1-0 loss to Cape Verde, falling to a heavy 4-1 loss to tournament hosts Cameroon. With confidence in tatters, they may struggle to claim a result here. Burkina Faso should wrap up second spot in Group A with a narrow win. 2:1

The Stallions are second in Group A as a result, three points adrift of Cameroon - the only team in the group to have won both of their two matches. Unbeaten in nine of their last 10 games across all competitions, Burkina Faso are playing some of their best football at the moment despite missing some key players.
