DR Congo looks to finish the AFCON 2023 group stages with a win and make it through to the next round as they face Tanzania who'll be aiming to weave themselves a fairytale in the last match.
Tanzania have just one point to show from their two games as they drew against Zambia in their last game. With just one point separating them and the two sides above them, they'll be hopeful of winning this game and securing a Round of 16 spot.
DR Congo, on the other hand, has a better chance than their rivals despite drawing both their games thus far. A win against Tanzania could see them march through the next stage whereas a loss could see them bow out of the tournament.
