The Republic of Congo will welcome Sudan to the Amaan Stadium on Tuesday for the opening match of the 2025 African Cup of Nations.

The home team enter this match after almost a year away from international football. There were two awarded 3-0 victories in the CAF World Cup qualifiers earlier this year, but they have not played a competitive match since December last year. In their last two friendlies, they beat Equatorial Guinea 2-1.

Sudan, on the other hand, have not been fortunate enough to secure automatic victories in CAF World Cup qualifying and instead had to face Senegal and South Sudan at the end of March this year. They remained unbeaten in those two matches - a 0-0 draw against Senegal and a 1-1 draw against neighbouring South Sudan.

Prediction

Sudan have fared relatively well in recent editions of the African Nations Championship. In fact, with 15 unbeaten matches out of a possible 18, it has done exceptionally well. Congo Republic, on the other hand, have fared much worse in recent years and have been more than disappointed with their performances, winning just 4 of their last 28 matches in all competitions. More importantly, Sudan are unbeaten in 6 consecutive matches in all competitions, and that's our prediction for this Tuesday - win or draw for Sudan (double chance x2).

Three reasons we expect Double chance x2

  1.  Sudan are unbeaten in 15 of their last 18 matches
  2.  Sudan are undefeated in 6 consecutive matches in all competitions
  3. Congo Republic have won only 4 of their last 28 matches in all competitions

Main prediction Congo - Sudan

Sudan win or draw (X2)
