The Elephants meet tournament hosts Egypt in Cairo with Drogba hoping to build on his match-winning semi-final strike against Nigeria.
Despite his impressive tournament, the Chelsea striker is riled by suggestions he is inferior to Barcelona's Eto'o, the current African Player of the Year who leads the goalscoring charts with five.
"I believe I am the best player in Africa and I am going to prove it tomorrow," said Drogba, whose club have been linked with a move for the Cameroonian.
"I am better than Samuel Eto'o, the only difference between me and Eto'o is that he knows how to publicise himself.
"If you are talking about football, I am a better player."
The Blues forward has scored three times in Egypt but believes he can match, and even beat Eto'o's mark against the Pharaohs.
He added: "I want to win this title, but not only that I also want to be the tournament's top scorer, so expect some goals from me."
Drogba's words are sure to stoke the fire ahead of a titanic encounter which will decide who will be crowned kings of Africa.
