DR Congo host Equatorial Guinea on Thursday at Stade des Martyrs in Kinshasa in their opening 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. The Group E match offers DR Congo an opportunity to start the qualifying campaign on a high. The hosts face a side on three straight defeats in competitive action, thus our prediction for a home win.
A higher ranking has the Leopards starting this campaign as clear favorites, also helped by Equatorial Guinea’s inferior ranking (105). Sebastien Desabre’s men avoided defeat in two of their three meetings with this visitor.
Their last game was at the 2026 World Cup, where they lost 2-1 to England, a result they’ll feel capable of building on.
Equatorial Guinea will be out to ruffle feathers in Kinshasa to light up their qualifying campaign. However, history doesn’t favour the minnows, who have only managed two wins in their last 10 outings in all competitions.
Those were against really weak sides; Kenya and Kyrgyzstan, in friendly matches. They lost their last three competitive outings, but the most recent was an international friendly.
That was against Comoros in June, which also ended in defeat (1-0). Nzalang Nacional’s last competitive outing was against Algeria in December, where they suffered a 3-1 defeat.

Our DR Congo vs Equatorial Guinea Prediction
A strong home record where they have won three of their last five matches could yet again propel DR Congo to victory when they host Equatorial Guinea in Kinshasa. DR Congo are unbeaten in six of their last 10 matches in all competitions and face an Equatorial Guinea side that has lost three of the last five away matches.
The visitors are also struggling in front of goal, having scored only three times in the last five games, and are winless in their last four matches. Our prediction for DR Congo v Equatorial Guinea is that DR Congo wins.
