Angola and DR Congo are in precarious positions as far as qualification for the African Nations Championship (Chan) knockouts is concerned. The two nations are a point apart in the Group A standings. Ahead of their Thursday match, we have a prediction below.
Angola are currently second, with four points from three matches. They are coming from a win, finally, beating Zambia 2-0 after earlier losing 2-0 to Morocco and drawing 1-1 with Kenya.
This presents their last chance to pick up three points in the group and place themselves in position for the knockouts. However, one win in five matches coming here doesn’t support their ambitions.
DR Congo have the advantage in having played one game less. The two-time Chan winners didn’t have a great start to the competition, losing 1-0 to host nation, Kenya.
However, they recovered on matchday two to beat Zambia 2-0 and they will be looking to carry on in the same way. The loss to Kenya was their only defeat in the last eight matches, though in that process they suffered another setback in drawing 1-1 with Chad.
In nine meetings with Angola, DR Congo remained unbeaten, and they kept clean sheets in the last two meetings. Their last five meetings also ended with under 2.5 goals.

Our Angola vs DR Congo Prediction
There is a trend of low-scoring results in matches involving these two nations. In their last two meetings, they played to goalless draws, and only one goal was scored in the last four. Meanwhile, all of their last five matches produced under 2.5 goals.
This is expected to be one such game, given their contrasting starts to the tournament. With the precarious nature of their standings going into this match, we don’t expect either side to go all out. Our prediction for Angola v DR Congo is, therefore, for under 2.5.
