We say: Egypt 2-1 Congo DR

 The seven-time AFCON champions have been far from impressive in this tournament, and there will be a fair few nerves heading into this match. While Congo DR have not set the stage alight in this competition, they have shown tremendous resilience and will likely try to keep this match level for as long as possible, which could open up gaps in the Egyptian defence on the counter-attack. This match could easily go the distance, but we are backing the Egyptians to progress when all is said and done. Read more.
