Key Players to Watch in Cameroon vs Zimbabwe

André Onana (Cameroon)

The Manchester United goalie is one of the biggest stars of this team. His apt reflexes were also a reason why the Cameroon national football team managed to keep a clean sheet in all games in this group, except for the one against Kenya, which they won 4-1.

Onana has been one of the few good performers in the Manchester United squad, having 5 clean sheets in 11 English Premier League matches. Now, playing against the second-best attack in the group, the defense are sure to receive sudden shots. Onana being the last man guarding needs to take responsibility here.

Richard Hachiro (Zimbabwe)

The 26-year-old midfielder was on the bench in the last game, but Michael Nees can give him a try in this one, as this is not much of a serious game. He has the required skill sets to shine in this particular game. He played two games against Namibia in this group, for minimal minutes, and those were the only games Zimbabwe won. So, he can be introduced again to get back the winning taste.

Cameroon vs Zimbabwe Prediction

The Cameroon national football team are expected to win this game at ease, for a number of factors. They have a better squad, home support, and form in their favour. So, we can speculate three points for the hosts. The Zimbabwe football team also had a great outing, but stand no chance in front of the superb side of Cameroon, hence they can taste their first defeat of the outing in this game.
