Cape Verde vs Cameroon Predictions

Cape Verde must better the result of Burkina Faso in order to progress so going for the win is their only real option. That could open the match up and result in goals. My best bet is a Cameroon win with over 2.5 goals in the game.

Head to Head

Cameroon lead Cape Verde 3-2 in their six matches with one draw. Cape Verde won their last match 3-1 at home in March 2021.

Cape Verde Form

Cape Verde came into AFCON 2022 in good form having gone unbeaten in their final four World Cup qualifiers. They played no friendly matches ahead of the tournament.

That run saw Cape Verde beat Liberia twice, Central Africa Republic and draw against Nigeria. Their form continued into the Africa Cup of Nations where they defeated a 10-man Ethiopia side 1-0.

Cape Verde couldn’t back up that opening performance in their last match as they went down 1-0 to Burkina Faso.

Cameroon are in great form having won their last six matches in all competitions. That run includes victory in their opening two AFCON 2022 fixtures.

Prior to the tournament Cameroon won three successive games without conceding in World Cup Qualifying. Cameroon then won their opening Africa Cup of Nations match 2-1 against Burkina Faso.

Last time out the tournament hosts went a goal down early against Ethiopia. A brace each from Karl Toko Ekambi and Vincent Aboubakar however saw Cameroon win 4-1 in an electric second half display.

Verdict

Cameroon v Cape Verde Islands

I'm backing Cameroon to make it three wins from three at AFCON with over 2.5 goals in the match. Vincent Aboubakar is tipped in the anytime and first goalscorer markets after hitting the back of the net three times in two matches.
