Our pre-match preview

Congo DR have home advantage and a large share of the ball, so expect them to probe patiently and look to control the tempo from the start. Sierra Leone are likely to sit deeper, wait for a moment to break forward, and rely on organised defending to keep the scoreline tight.

The key battle is between Congo DR's build-up play through midfield and Sierra Leone's ability to block central passing lanes. If the hosts can stretch the visitors wide, the chances should come, but if the visitors stay compact the game could become a grind.
