Gabon vs Kenya Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Prediction
Kenya will travel to Gabon for their opening Group F game in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers on Thursday. These two face off in a group that also has Burundi, Ivory Coast, Gambia and Seychelles. To this game, Gabon takes a run of four straight games without a win, and they failed to score in two. In their most recent outing, Gabon drew 1-1 with Guinea, a friendly match played in October. That result brought to an end a run of three straight losses, while they have one clean sheet in five. Four of Gabon’s last five matches had under 2.5 goals, and the same applies to three of four World Cup qualifiers. In 10 matches in World Cup qualification, Gabon have managed three wins. At home, they are unbeaten in the last four matches in World Cup qualifiers, winning the last two. All of their last four home matches in World Cup qualification ended in under 2.5 goals.
Kenya will be playing their first competitive match in two years when they travel for this game. The East African nation is coming straight from a FIFA ban and hopes to make this return worthwhile. The last time they played competitively was in this same competition – the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. Kenya’s last World Cup qualification game was against Rwanda, and they emerged 2-1 winners at home. That remains their only win in seven matches in World Cup qualification. They have no win in the last four World Cup qualification matches away from home, failing to score in two. Three of their last four World Cup qualifiers away from home ended in under 2.5 goals. Right ahead of their return to competitive action, Kenya have been playing friendly matches, some of them high-profile. They have two wins in six friendly matches. Most recently, they drew 2-2 with Russia.

Our Gabon vs Kenya Prediction
Gabon will be targeting a good start to the qualifiers, playing at home. They have a better home run in these matches than Kenya’s away run. However, both nations have been through low-scoring matches and we expect the same here. Our prediction for Gabon v Kenya is for Gabon to win and under 2.5 goals.
