Union Douala vs Gazelle Prediction: Both teams will find the back of the net

Mbappé Leppé Stadium will host the Cameroon Elite One encounter between Union Douala and Gazelle. The two teams are coming off a win and will hope to extend that run. How will this game unfold?

Union Douala

Union Douala's last league game was against Yong Sports Academy, and they secured maximum points. In a game that ended 3-1, this team came from behind to secure maximum points, with Abdoulaye Awalou striking twice, while Hamit Seini put them level in the 27th minute. This season, Union Douala have not suffered a single defeat in the league. They defeated Les Astres in their opener while drawing Aigle Moungo in game two. 

Heading into this game, Union Douala had an unbeaten run of five matches and won four. In their last four games at home, Union Douala have not lost since early March. With seven points, Union Douala are points levelled with first-placed Victoria United in the standings. 

Gazelle

Gazelle's last league game was against Bamenda, and this team secured a 0-4 win away from home. This team netted twice in each half in that encounter, with different goalscorers. Marius Kalgong Kada, Jordy Youmba, Serges Daura and Ibrahim Zakariyaou were all clinical in front of goal. In the meantime, Gazelle started their season very slow, losing to Fortuna Mfou in their opening game while drawing Colombe. 

Gazelle head into this game with two wins in their last five road games. In that run, they lost to Canon Yaounde and Yong Sports Academy while drawing Dynamo Doula. In the league this season, the road team have five points while scoring five goals.

Expert Betting Tips

I do not doubt that this game will involve goals, considering the competitive level of the two teams. While looking at their most recent encounter, we also witnessed that kind of scoreline, ending 3-1 in this venue. However, Union Douala have been at the top of their game, and despite only trying to avoid relegation last season, they now look confident of winning the league title. Yet, Gazelle are not performing too poorly and look like they have picked themselves up with a statement win over Bamenda. I expect a very tight game, and while the two teams should be at their best, I will lay on both teams scoring while Union Douala secures maximum points.
