Denmark has only managed 2 wins in their last 10 away matches across all competitions, alongside 4 draws and 4 losses (2W,4D,4L in 10).

Congo DR has kept a clean sheet in 7 of their last 10 matches across all competitions, underlining their defensive solidity.

Tactical Overview

Congo DR, under Sébastien Desabre, has transformed into a highly disciplined and defensively resolute unit. Their recent form across all competitions showcases this, with 7 wins in their last 10 matches, scoring 13 and conceding just 3. At home, they are even more formidable, winning 8 of their last 10, including clean sheets in 70% of those games. Their recent-form goals conceded per game stands at a miserly 0.55. They will rely on the defensive leadership of Chancel Mbemba and the attacking thrust of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with Cédric Bakambu leading the line. In contrast, Denmark is in a transitional phase, rebuilding under Brian Riemer and experimenting with younger talents. Despite their last 10 matches yielding 6 wins, 28 goals scored, and 80% Over 2.5 hit rate, their away form shows vulnerabilities with 4 losses in their last 10 away games and 16 goals conceded. Crucially, Denmark is missing several key players, including Joachim Andersen and Christian Eriksen, with Andreas Christensen, Rasmus Nissen Kristensen, and Morten Hjulmand all sidelined, which will significantly impact their defensive and midfield solidity. Their recent-form xG conceded of 1.11 per game, well above Congo DR's 0.55, highlights this disparity.
