- Kickoff: 16:00 UK / 17:00 CET
- Venue: Stade Larbi Zaouli
Madagascar have made a solid start to qualifying for the 2026 World Cup and are unbeaten in their last three matches. However, this impressive run could come to an end on Wednesday against the Central African Republic, who have won the last three head-to-head meetings against the visitors.
In the last qualifying round, the hosts played out a thrilling match with Ghana, which they lost 4-3 with just a one-goal difference. Madagascar, on the other hand, were much more reserved in their match against Mali and drew 0-0 at home.
Central African Republic - Madagascar Betting Tips: Central African Republic to Win or Draw (1X)
Just three points separate the two teams ahead of this match, with the Central African Republic looking to extend their perfect 100 percent home record in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. The hosts have a near perfect record against Madagascar in the recent past: they have won three games in a row and drawn the other two. In terms of performance and quality, there is not much between the two teams, therefore the Central African Republic should be able to at least secure a draw on their home turf.
