Gabon vs Burundi Prediction

In a thrilling encounter against the Gambians the other day, Gabon came from 3-2 down to win by four goals to three. The Gabonese were propelled thanks to four goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is missing through suspension for this one after being sent off late on in that game.

Burundi have been one of the more entertaining middling sides in CAF qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Burundi’s nine qualifying matches have consisted of 24 goals. They come into this one on the back of their losing streak being extended to three matches due to a 1-0 loss to Kenya.

Burundi will be good to watch in Gabon this week, but with a chance to still qualify for the tournament then they remain the favourites with their home advantage.
