Preview
- Tournament: AFCON Qualifying
- Date: Wednesday, Nov 13
- Kick-off Time: 1:00 pm GMT
- Venue: Orlando Stadium, South Africa
Namibia’s national football team has been declared unfit to host any football matches, so they will host the already qualified Cameroonian national football team at the Orlando Stadium. Namibia doesn’t have any significant status on the international stage, so we could expect another easy win for the dominant visitors.
The visitors have been in sensational form this year and have extended their impressive unbeaten streak across all competitions to six in a row. They have already qualified for the AFCON which will be hosted by Morocco next year. Cameroon are currently top in the group standings, gaining 10 points from their four opening games of the qualification.
Meanwhile, the hosts have endured an arduous time in the past few weeks and have been eliminated from AFCON 2025 after losing all their four qualifying games. The Brave Warriors also sit at the bottom of Group J after four matches without a single point.
