Cameroon and Egypt will meet in the semifinals of the Africa Cup of Nations on Thursday evening. The home side showed the most in the competition and will have great support from the crowd in this match. After the turnaround, the visitors knocked out favored Morocco in the quarterfinals and got just one step away from the finals.
Cameroon vs Egypt Match Preview & Team News
Cameroon fans will want to repeat the previous result, which is a 2:0 triumph in the Africa Cup of Nations over the Gambia. Their latest results shed light on the fact that things are going according to plan in the Cameroonian line. Cameroon has been miserly with the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their last six clashes, standing at 4. Vincent Aboubakar is the top scorer of the Africa Cup of Nations with six goals, and he is the national team leader. Karl Toko Ekambi scored a brace in the quarterfinals against the Gambia, and he is one of the most important players in Lyon.
Egypt will go into the game following on from a 2-1 Africa Cup of Nations win with the downing of Morocco in their previous outing. A sequence of resolute displays from the Egypt defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at three from their past six fixtures overall. Over that same period, the number of goals they have scored themselves is 6. Mohamed Salah is the biggest star of the Africa Cup of Nations, and the opposing defenders have no solution to stop the football wizard. Another interesting player who should be mentioned is midfielder Mohamed Elneny, who plays great at Arsenal.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Cameroon is the hottest favorite to lift the Africa Cup of Nations trophy, and their biggest advantage is playing in front of the home crowd. Although Egypt is a tricky opponent, we believe the hosts will celebrate a win and enter the finals.
Goals Market Prediction
Although Cameroon has been involved in some high-scoring matches recently, we don’t expect to see more than two goals in this one. The stake is very high for both teams, and they will apply a cautious approach to this match. Therefore, it should stay under a 2.5 margin.
