Key stats

  • This is the first‑ever encounter between Uzbekistan and Gabon.
  • Uzbekistan’s record against CAF teams is P9 W5 D1 L3, and they have won four in a row; their most recent match was a 2-0 victory over Egypt in a friendly tournament in the United Arab Emirates in November 2025.
  • Uzbekistan have played 51 matches against non‑AFC teams, with a record of W12 D13 L26; their most recent fixture was the same 2–0 win over Egypt in the United Arab Emirates in November 2025.
  • Gabon’s record in six previous matches against AFC teams is balanced at W2 D2 L2; their last such encounter was a 1-0 victory over the United Arab Emirates in Thailand during the King’s Cup in March 2018.
  • Gabon’s record against non‑CAF teams is P12 W3 D4 L5, with their most recent match again the 1-0 win over the United Arab Emirates in Thailand at the 2018 King’s Cup.

Uzbekistan vs Gabon prediction

Uzbekistan will be at the 2026 FIFA World Cup now under the management of 2006 FIFA World Cup and Ballon d’Or winner Fabio Cannavaro. The Uzbeks have lost just one, against two-time world champions Uruguay, in their last ten matches.

Gabon performed well in CAF qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, narrowly pipped to the post by the Ivory Coast, before then putting in a woeful CAF Africa Cup of Nations showing which actually led to some key men being banned from the national team.

Those key men, such as Mario Lemina and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, have been kept out of the squad and siding with Uzbekistan, especially with their home advantage, seems the way to go for this one.
