Open poll and resultsBenin vs Central African Republic Prediction
It's been a solid start to the group stage for Benin, but despite sitting top of the table, they still have a long way to go to secure qualification. Les Guepards are just one point above third-placed Mauritania, who will be looking to pounce on any slip-up here.
However, it's a Central African Republic team low on both confidence and quality that makes its way to Benin. Back-to-back defeats in September, leave them rooted to the foot of Group F. They scored just once across those two games and conceded four, three of which came at the hands of Mauritania. When taking this into account, Benin's front line will be confident of success themselves against what looks like a shaky Central African Republic defence.
When comparing these two squads man for man, Benin clearly have the edge. Provided they avoid any complacency, it's well worth backing them to pick up another three points here and maintain their unbeaten run in this AFCON qualifying campaign.
