Kick-off: December 30, 2025, at 21:00.

In the third round of the Africa Cup of Nations, the Botswana — DR Congo match will take place at the Al-Barid Stadium in Rabat. The situation of the teams in the group differs dramatically: the visitors, with four points, are close to securing a place in the knockout stage, while the hosts, after two defeats, have lost their mathematical chances of continuing the tournament.

Botswana, under the guidance of its coaching staff, has been unable to offer serious competition to the group leaders. In the opening round, the national team suffered a heavy defeat against Senegal, losing 3-0, and in the second match, it was narrowly beaten by Benin, conceding the decisive goal already in the first half, 1-0. The team’s winless run has now stretched to nine matches, and the lack of scored goals at the current tournament remains its main issue. Despite elimination, Botswana is motivated to make a strong final statement and to try to end its poor run in a match against one of the favorites.

DR Congo, under the leadership of Sébastien Desabre, is demonstrating solid and pragmatic football. After an opening victory over Benin thanks to a goal from Théo Bongonda, it played out a draw against star-studded Senegal, 1-1. In that match, Cédric Bakambu put his team ahead, and only a precise strike from Sadio Mané denied it an early qualification for the round of 16. Now the Central African national team needs just one point to advance from the group, but the quality of its players and current form allow it to aim for a confident victory and first place in the final standings.
