Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifying continues on Monday afternoon with the Central African Republic taking on Burkina Faso at Stade Larbi Zaouli. Six goals were scored when these two met last year, and our prediction is that both teams will get on the scoresheet in this match as well.
The Central African Republic have never qualified for the main draw of an AFCON tournament and suffered a 3-1 defeat to Mauritania in their opening match of this qualification cycle last week.
Les Fauves recorded 14 shots in the last match (five on target) but still finished with just 0.70 xG. Kortrijk striker Goduine Koyalipou scored the team’s only goal in the 48th minute.
CAR are now winless in their last three matches and have won just one of their last 13 matches in all competitions (D4 L8). Julien Kouadio was shown red in the last match and is suspended.
Meanwhile, Burkina Faso reached the round of 16 in each of the last two AFCONs and have only failed to qualify for the main draw of the continental competition once since 2010.
The Stallions were held to a 1-1 draw by Benin in their first match in these qualifiers. They had 64% possession but only created a single big chance across the 90 while conceding 1.54 xGA.
That result marked the third stalemate in Burkina Faso’s last four matches. However, they have won their last two games against this opponent, including a 4-2 victory last year.

Our Central African Republic vs Burkina Faso Prediction
While this is listed as a ‘home’ game for the Central African Republic, that is not actually the case, as the match will be staged in Casablanca due to the nation not having a CAF-approved stadium.
Both these sides gave up plenty of chances in their opening matches of the 2027 AFCON qualifiers, and with this game being played at a neutral venue, we are expecting this to be an open affair as well. Our Central African Republic vs Burkina Faso prediction is BTTS.
