The tactical read
Congo DR typically set up in 5-3-2 and make their first change around minute 55 - roughly 5 substitutions per game. Expect the first-sub window around then, earlier if they're chasing the game.
Over the last 4 matches, the same shape held up in 2 of them. The quickest hook came at 46' away at Colombia; the longest wait stretched to 64' away at England.
Results have gone against them lately (1-1-2 from the last 4) - under pressure, managers often get more reactive with team news and substitutions than their season-long averages suggest.
