DR Congo will be very disappointed with their form in recent matches. In their last six games, they have earned just a single victory to go with two draws and three defeats. The World Cup qualification campaign was horrendous for DR Congo who finished at the bottom of their group. The African Nations Championship provides them with an opportunity to bounce back and earn some well needed momentum.

Burkina Faso and Senegal have handed Ivory Coast two narrow defeats in their last two outings. Now, the nation finds themselves in a position where anything other than a win in matchday two could end their chances of qualification to the knockout stages.
Edo Kayembe and Neeskens Kebano will be out for DR Congo due to injury woes. As for Ivory Coast, Maxwel Cornet (calf injury) and Willy Boly (ankle injury) won’t feature.
