For bettors seeking safer coverage, the double chance pairing a Congo win <em>or<\/em> draw offers a lower-risk entry into the same outcome, effectively backing the Leopards not to lose, which suits their solid defensive record of just 0.60 goals conceded per 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/details><details class=\"wp-block-details mux-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Will there be more or less than 2.5 goals in this match?<\/summary>\n<p>Under 2.5 goals, priced at 1.89, looks the stronger lean here. DR Congo have conceded just 0.60 goals per 90 minutes in qualifying, and Uzbekistan arrive without Masharipov in midfield, blunting their creative output. A tight, low-scoring contest between two cautious sides is the most probable scenario.<\/p>\n<\/details><details class=\"wp-block-details mux-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>When and where is Congo DR vs Uzbekistan played?<\/summary>\n<p>The match kicks off at <strong>23:30 UTC on 27 June 2026<\/strong>, which is 01:30 CET on 28 June.

DR Congo&rsquo;s 50% clean-sheet rate in qualifying and Uzbekistan&rsquo;s depleted creative midfield, minus the injured Masharipov, suggest at least one side is likely to be shut out, making this market a logical complement to the low-scoring match narrative.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congo DR vs Uzbekistan: Prediction and Odds, World Cup, 28\/06\/2026 Two nations with everything to prove collide at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on 28 June when Congo DR face Uzbekistan in a World Cup Group K clash.
