Gabon vs Mozambique Betting Tips & Live Stream - Gabon too good for Mozambique in Africa Cup of Nations match

In a match-up between Gabon and Mozambique, Gabon seeks redemption following a narrow opening loss to Cameroon in the AFCON tournament. Despite missing out on World Cup qualification, Gabon remains in strong form, being unbeaten in six of their last seven matches. Historically dominating Mozambique with three wins out of four encounters, they are favored for a win to nil this time. Conversely, Mozambique struggles in AFCON history, going winless in 16 attempts, highlighting a need to improve offense. Gabon is backed to win 1-0, potentially utilizing experienced players like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for that crucial edge.

Gabon to bounce back with a win (Getty Images)

Gabon have had a very strong 2025 and were very unfortunate to miss out on World Cup qualification. I am backing them to bounce back with a win after losing their opener.

Key Stats - Gabon in Good Form despite Opening Defeat


  • Gabon are unbeaten in 6 of their last 7 matches (in 90 minutes).
  • Gabon have won 3 of their 4 matches against Mozambique.
  • Gabon have scored in 4 of their last 5 matches.
  • Mozambique have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
  • Mozambique are winless in their last 4 matches.

Gabon Dominant in H2H


Gabon have won three of their four matches against Mozambique.

Gabon Unbeaten in Six of their Last Seven


Gabon had a stellar World Cup qualifying campaign, losing just once in the group stage but unfortunately still only finished second. That meant they had to go to the playoffs where they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Nigeria on 13 November 2025.

That was their last game before coming into the Africa Cup of Nations. In their opening AFCON fixture, Gabon will count themselves unfortunate to have lost 1-0 to Cameroon.

The Indomitable Lions took a 6th minute lead and Gabon couldn’t find a way through thereafter. The stats show it was a pretty even game with Gabon having the better of possession and 14 shots on goal, three of which were on target – the same as Cameroon.

Mozambique have not Won in 16 Matches at AFCON


Mozambique are not historically a great threat in the Africa Cup of Nations but they have in recent years become a more competitive outfit. They have also put in some impressive performances this year, none more so than in their 1-0 defeat to Morocco in November this year.

Unfortunately, the Southern African nation drew 2-2 against Chad thereafter and lost 4-1 to Angola in friendlies. Their opening AFCON game ended in a 1-0 loss to Ivory Coast on Christmas Eve.

Mozambique were their usual stubborn selves at the back and looked comfortably for most of the match. They conceded in the 49th minute but seldom threatened to level.

Throughout the game, Mozambique only had three shots on goal, two of which were on target and 44% possession. They will need to find away to offer more threat going forward if they are to get results.

Gabon vs Mozambique News & Possible Lineup


Gabon: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang came off the bench in the opener, as did Mario Lemina. Both of them offer plenty of experience and could start on Sunday.

Predicted Starting Lineup: (4-3-3) - Mbaba; Oyono, Ecuele Manga, Mouckettou-Mossounda, Ekomia; Openda, Poko, Ndong; Aubameyang, Bouanga, Lemina

Mozambique: Mozambique have yet to win an AFCON match in 16 attempts and they’ve never progressed past the group stage. Scoring goals will be the difference this year, and if they can find a couple here, they may be in a position to qualify for the KO rounds for the first time ever.

Predicted Startling Lineup (4-4-1-1): Siluane; Diogo Calila, Mexer, Mandava, Langa; Kambala; Catamo, Amade, Guima, Ratifo; Witi

Verdict

Gabon are backed to win to nil against Mozambique. A 1-0 scoreline is forecast.
