Gambia vs Cameroon Predictions


With no points and one point respectively, the equation is simple for Gambia and Cameroon. A win is needed to challenge for a third-place spot, or runner-up in the group in Cameroon's case.

Gambia have failed to score so far in the tourmanent and I think the Indomitable Lions can edge them and keep their AFCON hopes alive. 

  • Gambia have lost their last 4 matches
  • Gambia have failed to score in their last 3 matches
  • Cameroon have won to nil in their last 3 matches against Gambia

Head to Head


Gambia have never scored against Cameroon, losing the three previous clashes 1-0, 2-0 and 2-0. The most recent was at African Cup of Nations two years ago.

Gambia Form


Gambia earned their spot in AFCON when ending qualifying with a 2-2 draw against Congo, but things haven't gone so well at the finals.

Tom Saintfiet's side lost their opening game against Senegal 3-0 and then went down 1-0 to Guinea on Friday.

The Scorpions are on a four-game losing run having lost World Cup qualifiers to Burundi 3-2 and Ivory Coast 2-0 in November.

Cameroon Form


Cameroon hace work to do at AFCON after picking up a single point from their first two matches in Group C.

The Indomitable Lions drew 1-1 in their opening game against Guinea but were no match for Senegal on Friday as they went down 3-1.

It is now four games without a win for Rigobert Song's side following a 1-1 draw with Libya in World Cup qualifying and a 1-1 stalemate with Zambia in a pre-AFCON friendly.

Goalkeepers: Fabrice Ondoa, André Onana, Devis Epassy, Simon Ngapandouetnbu

Verdict

Both sides need a win to stand a chance of qualifying for the knockout stages. Cameroon could still snatch second spot in the group and I'm backing them to defeat Gambia and progress.

For added value, The Indomitable Lions are tipped to win to nil.
