Cameroon vs Cape Verde Prediction: A tight encounter is expected

Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium will be the venue for this World Cup qualifier encounter between Cameroon and Cape Verde. In this qualifier, both teams have not lost an encounter. How will this one end?

Cameroon's last game was against Nigeria, and this team lost 2-0. However, a look at this team’s last five matches shows that this team won just one, a 2-3 win over Gambia. In the meantime, other encounters saw this team lose to Senegal while they drew Guinea and Zambia. 

In their World Cup qualifier, Cameroon defeated Mauritius, and they drew Libya. This team has accumulated 4 points in the Group D standings, positioning them in the 3rd spot. 

Cape Verde will look to show character in this game despite being on the road. In the last matches of this encounter, Cape Verde picked 1-0 wins over Guyana and Equatorial Guinea in friendly encounters. 

However, the Cape Verde World Cup qualifier has seen them win and draw one. In their lone win, they took on Eswatini and secured a 0-2 win while drawing Angola. In the Group D standings, Cape Verde have 44 points, positioning them 4th. 

I do not trust Cameroon fully here, looking at their performances at this stage. While Cape Verde had a good AFCON experience and coming off victories, which should be momentum, being on the road will be tough for them. Expect home turf advantage to have a huge influence in this game in what should be a competitive encounter.
