DR Congo vs Ethiopia Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Daniel Ngulu | in AFCON Predictions
The top team in Group H of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers, DR Congo and the bottom side, Ethiopia, will meet on Match Day 6. There’s nothing to be gained from this game for either team, hosts DR Congo having qualified and Ethiopia eliminated. Here’s our prediction for the match.
Four wins in their opening four matches ensured Congo went into Match Day 5 having already qualified. The 1-0 away loss to Guinea, therefore, only broke their winning run.
This will be the fifth time in history that these teams get to meet. Congo have three wins in the previous four.
Ethiopia are coming from a 2-0 home loss at the hands of Tanzania. They head into another tough away match and not much is expected from them here either.
The one-time AFCON winners haven't been able to add to their single point earned on Match Day 1 of these qualifiers. much of their troubles in the qualifiers stem from the fact that they’ve been weak in attack.
Ethiopia have scored only one goal in their five matches in this group, in a 4-1 loss to Guinea. In each of their last four matches, they lost by a margin of at least two goals. In 10 straight away AFCON qualification matches, Ethiopia are winless.

Our DR Congo vs Ethiopia Prediction
For these two nations, this is a dead rubber affair. Still both teams will want to finish their qualification campaigns with wins. For Ethiopia, it will be a tall order given their form in such matches. Playing as visitors, they haven't won in AFCON qualification in the last 10 attempts.
They’ve also scored just once in their last five AFCON qualification matches. Meanwhile, DR Congo have a good run at home in AFCON qualification and we expect them to finish their campaign on a high. Our prediction for DR Congo v Ethiopia is for DR Congo to win to nil.
