Team News

Egypt
DR Congo
  • Mohamed Salah is absent for Egypt, with Zizo in line to deputise on the right.
  • Rui Vitoria is also able to call upon Trezeguet from out wide if he wishes to mix up his frontline.
  • Edo Kayembe is DR Congo's only injury concern for Sunday's meeting with Egypt.
  • Yoane Wissa may lead the line for the Leopards with Cedric Bakambu struggling for Sebastien Desabre's side.

Head to Head Stats

Prediction

  • Egypt have had no issues scoring at AFCON but their defensive resolve, or lack thereof, meant they had to settle for second spot in Group B. Indeed, the Pharaohs scored six times in the group stages but also shipped six, and they need to shape up here.
  • DR Congo, like Egypt, didn't set the world alight in the group stages as they, too, drew all three group games. The Leopards scored just two goals in their three games and their profligacy could prove their undoing.
  • As one of Africa's powerhouse sides, Egypt should have enough to progress to the quarter-finals.
