AFCON Qualifiers

our main tip:
Under 2.5 Goals

Kenya vs Cameroon prediction

Kenya will look to continue their solid start to this AFCON campaign when they welcome West African giants in the reverse group fixture on Monday 14th October 2024. They are third behind Cameroon and Zimbabwe in Group J after splitting their opening three group games (1W, 1D, 1L). This match offers coach Engin Firat’s charges a chance to get back in contention if they can claim all three points on offer here

Cameroon failed to make their dominance against Zimbabwe count as the two teams played out to a dour 0-0 stalemate to claim a share of the points at the Nelson Mandela National Stadium. The West Africans had 60% possession but failed to muster a single shot on target and could easily have come up trumps were it not for Andre Onana keeping the hosts in check. Coach Rigobert Song got the response he wanted as they made light work of Kenya on Friday winning 4-1 and he will be demanding the same mentality here.

After that one-sided first leg on Friday, we expect a much tighter encounter with neither team looking to cede too much ground. We are therefore backing a cagey match here and we are picking Under 2.5 Goals as our opening Kenya vs Cameroon prediction for this match
