The Tunisia A' national football team has represented Tunisia in men's international association football for local players . The team is administered by the Tunisian Football Federation (TFF), which governs football in Tunisia. On a continental level, the team competes under the Confederation of African Football (CAF), which governs associate football in Africa, and is also affiliated with FIFA for global competitions. Additionally, the team is a member of the Union of North African Football (UNAF) and the Union of Arab Football Associations (UAFA). The team is colloquially known as Eagles of Carthage by fans and the media, with the bald eagle serving as its symbol. Their home kit is primarily white and their away kit is red, which is a reference to the national flag of the country. Abdelhay Ben Soltane is the current head coach.

Tunisia played its first match on 30 March 2008 against Libya in Tripoli during the 2009 African Nations Championship qualification which ended in a 1–1 draw in the first leg. The team failed to qualify for the inaugural edition in 2009 after being eliminated by Libya on penalties in the second leg. In 2010, the team played against Morocco at the 2011 African Nations Championship qualification. The team qualified for the African Nations Championship for the first time after a 1–1 draw in the first leg and a 2–2 draw in the second leg. In the finals in Sudan, Tunisia won the title in their first participation after presenting strong performances throughout the tournament and defeating Angola 3–0 in the final.

As the title holder, the team failed to qualify for the 2014 edition after losing to Morocco 0–1 on aggregate in the two qualifying matches. In 2015, Tunisia enter the 2016 African Nations Championship qualification. The qualifying system came through a group of three teams, in addition to Libya and Morocco. The team qualified for the finals by finishing second in the group after one win, one draw and two losses. In the finals, after topping the group with two draws and a resounding 5–0 victory over Niger, the team was eliminated in the quarter-finals after a surprising 2–1 defeat to Mali. Tunisia did not enter the 2018 African Nations Championship qualification due to the senior team's preparations and participation in the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The team qualified for the 2020 edition after defeating Libya 1–0 and 2–1 in the two-legged qualifiers. However, they withdrew from the tournament due to scheduling constraints and the COVID-19 pandemic. This withdrawal resulted in the Tunisian Football Federation being fined $50,000 by CAF and banned from participating in the 2022 edition. On 9 October 2024, during the draw for the 2024 African Nations Championship qualification, CAF has allocated three places for the North African region, however Algeria and Egypt have declined to participate, it was decided that Libya, Morocco and Tunisia would automatically qualify for the final tournament. However, on 9 November Tunisia withdrew again from participation after meeting with representatives of Tunisian league clubs due to the pressure of the calendar.
