The game between Senegal and Cameroon is the biggest one at the AFCON this Friday. These two teams are after a title, though, with Senegal being the reigning champ, they have better chances of reaching the throne again than their rivals.
Before Betting on Senegal vs. Cameroon
The Lions of Teranga enjoyed a commanding 3-0 victory in their opening match, extending their impressive unbeaten streak to five games across all competitions. What’s even more remarkable is their ability to keep clean sheets in each of these matches, a defensive prowess they will surely aim to capitalize on in their upcoming encounter.
Cheikhou Kouyate’s absence is a problem and the player will not be able to contribute to the team’s efforts as he mourns the loss of his father, who tragically passed away on Tuesday. Mane and the boys have excellent chemistry, and for sure, that might be the most significant strength of this unit.
As for Les Lions Indomptables, they didn’t start the tournament well, playing 1-1 against Guinea. It was the sixth meeting in the last seven for them to fail to win, and that’s a terrible record for one of the dark horses in the competition.
The good thing is that Manchester United’s Andre Onana joined the team. With him in front of the goal, it’s much easier for the entire squad because Onana’s experience and excellence present a massive boost. This change is expected to enhance the team’s defensive stability and further reinforce their bid for victory.
