Cameroon – Ethiopia : Preview & Prediction
Organizer of this CAN 2022, Cameroon was expected for its entry into the running. And the Indomitable Lions did the job against Burkina Faso. Faced with its great contender for first place in this group, Toni Conceiçao’s team managed to take all three points. Despite the opening of the score of the Burkinabés, Cameroon was able to rely on its captain, Vincent Aboubakar. Thanks to a double in the very last minutes of the first period, he gave a decisive advantage to his selection (2-1). A precious victory that allows him to fill up with confidence before his second day and a meeting against Ethiopia. From now on, the objective will be clear for the Cameroonian players: to offer themselves a second success in a row, and to be almost certain to play the 8th finals of their competition. And the supporters of the Indomitable Lions can be particularly calm before this meeting. We will have to show a similar face in envy and debauchery of energy as against Burkina Faso, but be more technically precise and better manage the offensive phases.
Ethiopia is certainly the most affordable selection of this hen, at least on paper. And she did not get into this competition at best. For its first match, the Ethiopians found Cape Verde. After only 12 minutes of play, Yared Baye is excluded and leaves his teammates outnumbered. Cape Verde will take the opportunity to offer its first three points in this CAN 2022, by winning the match on the smallest of margins (1-0). A defeat which already strongly compromises Ethiopia’s chances of qualifying. From now on, she will find the big favorite of this hen who has only one intention: to secure the first place as quickly as possible. Ethiopian players are therefore given very little chance. They will certainly have a hard time getting back on track after a delicate entry into the game. And a new defeat would condemn them to the exploit in the third match, against Burkina Faso, which is not left out either and will be very difficult to beat.
Depending on the result of the other group meeting, Cameroon can qualify.
Cameroon remains on five successes in a row.
Ethiopia have won just one of their last six matches.
Ethiopia is in last place in Pool A.
Ethiopia have won neither of their last two encounters against Cameroon.
Cameroon healed its entry into the running, winning against Burkina Faso (2-1). The Indomitable Lions were however able to count on two penalties. They will intend to gain strength against Ethiopia. Toni Conceiçao’s men could well manage to offer themselves a big success in this match.
