DR Congo vs Uzbekistan Stats, Match Statistics, xG & Player Data

(Atlanta)

DR Congo vs Uzbekistan stats start with a Group K match at Atlanta Stadium, where the DR Congo national football team face the Uzbekistan national football team on 27 June 2026. Both teams have scored once through two group matches, but their defensive profiles look very different before kickoff. The pre-match data covers xG, shots, possession, player leaders, and the pressure around a final group fixture.
DR Congo World Cup 2026 squad and fixtures show a side still alive after a draw with Portugal and a narrow loss to Colombia. Uzbekistan World Cup 2026 squad and fixtures show a team needing a response after heavy defensive pressure. The World Cup 2026 Group K standings and fixtures make this a match where goal difference and late table movement matter.
The match is listed for 7:30 PM local time at Atlanta Stadium. It also belongs in the World Cup 2026 stats and records tracker because Uzbekistan have conceded four goals per match in the public team data. Full match data should replace these pre-match averages after the official feed closes.

Key Player Statistics
Wissa gives DR Congo their clearest scoring reference. Masuaku adds delivery from the left, and Mpasi’s goalkeeper numbers matter because Uzbekistan can still create enough pressure to test him. DR Congo need one of those leaders to turn a low-event match into a result.
Fayzullaev is Uzbekistan’s most important public data point before kickoff. Khamdamov has the stronger rating marker, while Yusupov sits in the goalkeeper row. Uzbekistan need those players to stabilize the match after two difficult defensive performances.
| Player | Team | Key Data |
|---|---|---|
| Yoane Wissa | DR Congo | 1 goal, 0.3 xG |
| Arthur Masuaku | DR Congo | 1 assist in FOX leaders |
| Lionel Mpasi | DR Congo | 6.0 rating marker, 21 keeper save marker |
| Abbosbek Fayzullaev | Uzbekistan | 1 goal, 2 shots on goal, 0.7 xG |
| Dostonbek Khamdamov | Uzbekistan | 6.5 rating marker |
| Utkir Yusupov | Uzbekistan | 0 clean sheets in FOX leaders |
Expected Goals Analysis
The xG comparison gives Uzbekistan a narrow edge. DR Congo sit at 0.5 xG per match, while Uzbekistan sit at 0.6. That is not a large enough gap to create certainty, but it shows Uzbekistan have reached slightly better chance areas.
The defensive gap changes the xG reading. Uzbekistan’s 4.0 goals-against average means DR Congo do not need heavy volume to create danger. The full-time update should separate open-play xG, set-play xG, shot locations, and goalkeeper saves once the official match feed closes.
