Tunisia looked ahead on Wednesday to their Africa Cup of Nations 2022 qualifier against Tanzania, which will be played in Rades on Friday.

The 'Eagles of Carthage' currently sit top of the Group J standings after winning their first two qualifiers against Libya and Equatorial Guinea.

Wahbi Khazri, who plays for Saint-Etienne in France, has scored three times in the campaign to date, grabbing a brace in the 4-1 win over Libya before notching the solitary goal as Equatorial Guinea were beaten 1-0.

Tanzania currently sit third in the group standings on three points, trailing Libya on goal difference.

Friday's match will be both teams' first qualifier in almost a year following the coronavirus pandemic.
