The game will be played in Kinshasa on Tuesday, September 5th.
D.R. Congo entered the crucial stage of the qualification for the Mundial with two victories gained, however, on the 1st of September the team lost 1:2 to its main and the only opponent in the race for winning the Group A - Tunisia on the road. As a result, “The Democrats” have six points earned with 7-3 goal difference after three matchdays played and currently occupy the second place in the Group A, being three points behind Tunisia. At its own turf D.R. Congo has conducted one clash within the group stage, having beaten Libya 4:0.

The Tunisians have passed through the first lap of the qualifying competition with 100% result, having taken nine points with 5-1 goal difference. The key to Tunisia's success is in its rock-solid and well-organized play in defense which most of the African sides are lacking. Tunisia participated in one encounter at away turf in this qualifying cycle resulting in 1:0 triumph over Libya. Performing solid in defense waiting for its chances in offense - this is Tunisia's football style and it is stick to it both at home and on the road.
The first head-to-head between D.R. Congo and Tunisia dates back to the 8th of January 1989 when D.R. Congo celebrated for the first and the last time 3:1 victory. Since then the teams met nine times with two draws and seven wins gained by Tunisia. In recent years the rivals’ level has equalized which was shown by their last head-to-head, therefore, I expect for much fight and minimum of goals scored in the Tuesday clash.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
