Stade Annexe de la Reunification will host the Cameroon Elite One encounter between Union Douala and Cotonsport. The two teams head into this game following a winless performance in their last encounter. Which side wins here? Below, I give a full match preview and make betting opportunities available. 

Union Douala

Union Douala's last league encounter was against Bamenda, and they settled for a goalless draw. In the meantime, that encounter extended Union Douala’s winless run to four. This team lost to Gazelle, Fortuna Mfou, and Colombe in prior encounters. In fact, Union Douala have failed to score in their last four matches, conceding six in the same run. In their last home matches, this team won three while losing two. This season, Union Douala have eight points from seven matches, leaving them 10th in the standings. 

Cotonsport

Cotonsport

Cotonsport were on the road against Can Yaounde the previous weekend and settled for a 1-1 draw. In that encounter, Carlos Youngouda gave this team the lead before the break, but a Franck Belobo strike in the 57th minute denied them maximum points. However, Cotonsport have an unbeaten run of three matches, with their last defeat coming against Stade Renard. This team defeated Aigle Moungo in their unbeaten run while drawing Les Astres. In the league this season, Cotonsport have accumulated 10 points from seven games, leaving them seated 8th spot.

Expert Betting Tips

The two teams are struggling, especially in defence this season and I will lean on that weakness. While looking at the two teams' overall performances, there seems to be little or no difference in their performances. Yet, the visiting team looks like the better side, but I do not see them having an easy job on the road. I will bet on this game to end in a draw, with both teams netting once. 

The first option will be a BTTS with odds at 2.16 on 1Xbet

The second option will be a 1-1 correct score at full time with odds at 6.00 on Bet365

The last option will be a draw at full time with odds at 2.75 on Betway
