Cameroon vs DR Congo Predictions - World Cup qualifier to go the distance
Cameroon takes on DR Congo in a high-stakes World Cup playoff, with both teams eager to progress to the finals. Historically, Cameroon has the upper hand with an 8-1 record in head-to-head matches against DR Congo. Despite playing on neutral ground, Cameroon’s form on the road has been inconsistent. DR Congo had a strong campaign in Group B, just missing automatic qualification. With both sides showing defensive resilience, this contest is likely to be a low-scoring affair, potentially stretching into extra time. A 1-1 draw in regulation is anticipated.
- Cameroon leads 8-1 in head-to-head records against DR Congo.
- DR Congo narrowly missed World Cup qualification, losing to Senegal.
- Predicted outcome: 1-1 draw after regular time.

While this is neutral ground in Morocco, Cameroon struggled on the road in the group stage. I am backing this match to end level with extra time to decide a winner.
- Cameroon have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 World Cup qualifiers.
- Cameroon have seen BTTS No in their last 4 World Cup qualifiers.
- Cameroon have won 8 of their 13 matches against DR Congo.
- DR Congo have seen under 1.5 goals in their last 2 World Cup qualifiers.
- DR Congo have won 3 of their last 4 World Cup qualifiers.
Head to Head
Cameroon have a dominant record against DR Congo, leading 8-1 in 13 matches. There have been four drawn encounters. They last played in 2021 where Cameroon won 2-1 at the CHAN tournament.
Cameroon Form
Cameroon finished second in Group D of the African FIFA World Cup qualifiers, four points behind Cape Verde and three and head of Libya. They won five, drew four and lost one of their 10 group matches.
Throughout the campaign, Cameroon’s inconsistency was a concern as they are a regular at World Cup campaigns. However, they kept their chances alive with two wins and a draw in their last four matches.
The run began with a 3-0 home win over Eswatini before losing 1-0 at Cape Verde. That result all but sealed the Indomitable Lions fate.
A 2-0 win away to Mauritius proved to be the key result which secured second place. In the final game, Cameroon drew 0-0 at home to Angola.

DR Congo Form
DR Congo just missed out on automatic World Cup qualification, ending second to Senegal in Group B. It was a strong campaign, winning seven of their 10 matches with a draw and two defeats.
Four of their last five qualifiers ended in victories with one loss. After a dominant 4-1 win against South Sudan, DR Congo suffered a 3-2 loss at home to Senegal, who went on to qualify automatically.
That was followed by successive 1-0 victories to end their campaign. The first one was away to Togo before Theo Bongonda sealed a 1-0 home win against Sudan on the final day.
