After their sojourns in the African Nations Championship (CHAN), Tanzania and Congo will be switching gears to the World Cup qualifiers. Congo will welcome Tanzania to Brazzaville for this Group E match. Below we have a prediction.
The hosts are at the bottom of this group, without a point after five matches. Congo didn’t have the best of times at CHAN, exiting at the group stage with two points.
Failure to win a single game there means the hosts are now winless in their last five matches. In their last eight matches, Congo failed to score five times, and they only have two goals in this group.
Tanzania had an anticlimax in the CHAN tournament, where they played as one of the host nations. They were eliminated at the quarter-finals and will hope to restart their momentum here.
In this group, they are well positioned, being second on nine points, six behind Morocco. While achieving the top spot might be challenging, Tanzania can vie for the playoffs as one of the best-placed runners-up.
Their two defeats in the qualifiers were inflicted by Morocco, so Taifa Stars will be happy to have that out of the way. In their earlier meeting with Congo, they won 3-0 at home and will be keen on repeating that feat.

Our Congo Republic vs Tanzania Prediction
The last time these teams faced off, Tanzania won 3-0. That was another display of Congo’s struggles in attack. The hosts here haven't scored in their last four group matches, and this is among the reasons they are placed low in the pool.
Tanzania may feel like the favorites, but they’ve gone without scoring in their last two matches as well. The fact that they will be playing away from home makes this tougher. Our prediction for Congo v Tanzania is: Both teams to score – NO.
