DR Congo's commanding 93.5% implied probability stems from their flawless start in Group E, securing six points from victories over Equatorial Guinea and Zimbabwe while showcasing strong attacking output led by forward Yoane Wissa. Their higher FIFA ranking, recent World Cup round-of-32 finish, and greater squad depth create a substantial edge over Zimbabwe, Equatorial Guinea, and Sierra Leone, who trail with three points or fewer after mixed early results. Traders view the Leopards as clear favorites to top the group and advance, given favorable remaining fixtures against lower-ranked sides. Late injuries to key personnel or a collapse in form during November and March matchdays represent the primary realistic paths for challengers to close the gap.
