Watch DR Congo vs Jamaica FREE live streams to find out who will qualify for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico. It's a one-off intercontinental playoff between the African side and the team from the Caribbean – winner takes all. Don't miss it.

DR Congo are one game from a first World Cup since 1974, when they lost three games from three as Zaire. Under French boss Sébastien Desabre, the Leopards have already come through two single-match playoffs, beating Cameroon and Nigeria on penalties to reach this point. Newcastle striker Yoane Wissa is the biggest name, but a defense that includes Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Chancel Mbemba, who scored the late winner against Cameroon, is their strength. They lost just two of 10 qualifiers before the playoffs and start as favorites after a 2-0 friendly defeat of Bermuda on Thursday.

Jamaica's route has been more circuitous. Unable to finish above Curaçao in their qualifying group, the Reggae Boyz have had to come the intercontinental route to reach a first World Cup since France 98. Former England boss Steve McClaren resigned after a goalless draw with Curaçao consigned them to this path, with Rudolph Speid in temporary charge as they beat New Caledonia 1-0 on Tuesday thanks to a goal from Wrexham's Bailey Cadamarteri. Expect Brentford center-back Ethan Pinnock to start.

The winner will go into Group K at the 2026 World Cup alongside Colombia, Portugal and Uzbekistan. There's everything to play for.
