Cameroon will take on Brazil in the World Cup 2022 group stage 3rd round. The African team needs to win to keep their chances of progressing to the knockout round, while Brazil wants to maintain the perfect record.
Cameroon Preview & Team News
Cameroon’s final group stage match comes against Brazil, who have already secured a place in the Round of 16. The fifth lowest-ranked team in the World Cup has a tough challenge ahead, as only a victory would keep them in the knockout-stage battle. Following a few years of struggles, the Indomitable Lions have improved recently with the Serie A contingent of Andre Onana and Andre-Frank Anguissa supported by the likes of Brentford’s Bryan Mbuemo and Bayern Munich’s Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting. Unfortunately for Rigobert Song’s side, their solid core saw them come up short against nations with more depth, and they are about to face one of the most talent-rich squads in the world. Although Cameroon has picked up just a point so far, they won’t give up on their chances to continue the campaign.
Brazil Preview & Team News
Tite’s side will be well aware of their status as favorites. But having crashed out spectacularly in the 2018 World Cup, they will be keen to ensure their progress in this competition. The Selecao rarely lacks attacking talent, but this year the squad is perhaps more offensive-minded than ever. Tite has a wealth of forwards to select from and could easily rotate the entire front line and retain a world-class XI. Despite their attacking set-up, Brazil is no slouches defensively, and in Thiago Silva and Marquinhos have a perfect relationship at center-back. Nevertheless, since Brazil has already secured a top-two finish, we wouldn’t be surprised to see a mixed lineup on Friday evening.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Although Brazil should rest the main players, they remain favorites in this encounter. Cameroon shouldn’t pose a major threat, and we expect another Brazil success on Friday evening.
Goals Market Prediction
We could see an entertaining clash since Cameroon shouldn’t be only focused on defense. Therefore, the crowd might enjoy at least three goals in total.
