The match

Contrasting starts to their Africa Nations Cup finals (AFCON) put the focus on Egypt (W1) versus D.R. Congo (L1) battle. The hosts started the tournament with a 1-0 win Zimbabwe, making it three wins in a trot including friendlies. Furthermore, Egypt have lost just once in their last nine matches, winning seven of those (W7, D1, L1). Their record gets even better while playing in the AFCON, as Egypt have lost only once in their last 26 matches at regular time, in all competitions and friendlies (W19, D6, L1). Four of their five games this calendar year have been low-scoring affairs ending with under 2.5 match goals. In addition, three of their last four outings have seen a score of 1-0 either way. Two-time Champions DR Congo started their tournament in the worst manner possible, losing 2-0 to Uganda. In fact, they have now won just once since the start of 2018, drawing six of their ten games during this run (W1, D6, L3). Five of those six draws have seen a score of 1-1, although they did fight back after conceding the first goal in four of those stalemates. Nine of their last ten matches since the start of 2018 have featured under 2.5 match goals, so there is every chance that it might continue this time around.

Key Statistics

  • Egypt have seen four of their last five games this calendar year featuring under 2.5 goals.
  • D.R. Congo have seen nine of their last ten games featuring under 2.5 match goals.
  • D.R. Congo have drawn seven of their last nine AFCON group games, winning the other two.

The bet of our experts

A quick look at the recent games indicates that this could be a fixture of few goals. DR Congo have been struggling to get positive results in the recent games, which is a worry for them. Should they lose this out to Egypt, their chances of qualifying for the knockouts will be long gone. The hosts, however, will not be sympathetic to their cause and might look to put the sword to them.
