Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
------------------------
Gabon aims to boost its chances of automatic qualification for the 2026 World Cup by securing a win against Seychelles in their upcoming Group F match. With 15 points from six games, Gabon sits second in the group, just one point behind leaders Ivory Coast, while Seychelles remains at the bottom of the table with no points.
Team Analysis:
Gabon returns to World Cup qualifying after a five-month break, aiming to build on recent momentum following a win over Guinea-Bissau and back-to-back victories in March against Seychelles and Kenya. With 12 goals scored and six conceded, they lead the runners-up play-off standings but are focused on securing direct qualification, making their upcoming match against Seychelles crucial before facing Ivory Coast. Confidence is high due to strong away form, while Seychelles, already eliminated and hosting at a neutral venue, continue to struggle with a poor record, having conceded the most goals and scored only twice in the qualifiers.
Player Situation:
Seychelles has named a 23-man squad blending local players with a few professionals from abroad, including three newcomers like Cambridge United’s Samuel Okolie. Gabon, meanwhile, called up 25 players led by star striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, supported by a strong attacking lineup and experienced midfielders like Mario Lemina. Their defense features reliable names such as Antony Oyono and Yannis Mbemba, with Mbaba Loyce Marius likely to remain in goal.
Result Prediction:
Gabon is widely expected to secure an easy win over Seychelles due to the significant difference in quality between the two teams, and anything less would be seen as a major surprise.
Predicted Result: Seychelles 0-3 Gabon.
