Central Africa Republic vs Comoros Islands Match Prediction 07 September 2025

Comoros could still make a spot in the World Cup and without doubt, they will come into this game with purpose. While Central Africa Republic have been the weakest side in this group, playing away from home will not be an easy task for the Comoros side. Meanwhile the two teams have been incompetent defensively, as they have conceded so much in this qualifier, while their first leg meeting also ended with six goals. This could be a tough one as Comoros will need at least a second-place spot to at least increase their chances with many points as we are into the final three games of the qualifier. With Central Africa Republic at home, I believe they will show a lot of quality in attack, but Comoros will get their best at full time.

Our match prediction is a win for Comoros Islands in at least one half with odds at 1.60 on 1Xbet bookmaker. 

Our betting tip is over 2.5 goals with odds at 2.35 on Bet365 bookmaker. 

Our final match prediction is both teams to score with odds at 2.10 on Betway bookmaker.
