Namibia vs Cameroon Predictions


Namibia are a decent side and are hard to beat with a top striker in Shalulile. Cameroon are shorn of some of their top attacking weapons for this match. I am tipping a low scoring draw in Johannesburg.

  • Namibia are undefeated in their last 4 matches (2 draws)(AFCON Qualification).
  • Namibia have seen BTTS Yes in their last 3 AFCON Qualifiers.
  • Cameroon have drawn 2 of their last 3 matches (AFCON Qualifiers).
  • Cameroon have seen Under 2.5 goals in their last 3 AFCON Qualifying matches.

Head to Head


These sides have played on just one previous occasion.

They met on Friday and played out a 1-1 draw in Cameroon.

Namibia Form


Namibia sit second in Group C of AFCON 2023 qualifying. After losing 1-0 at home to Togo in World Cup qualifying, they drew 1-1 with Burundi in their opening qualifier for the CAF African Cup of Nations.

The Brave Warrior then played in the COSAFA Cup and beat Madagascar 2-0 and won 1-0 against Mozambique. They lost 1-0 to Zambia in the final played in South Africa.

On Friday, they picked up a fine 1-1 draw in Cameroon. Peter Shalulile opened the scoring but they conceded a 72nd minute equaliser.

Namibia Squad & Team News


Brave Warriors’ coach Collin Benjamin is not expected to make many changes to his XI. Record-goalscorer Peter Shalulile will be key once again. 

Centre back Charles Hambira went off injured in Cameroon and could be replaced by Ananias Gebhardt.

Cameroon Form


The Indomitable Lions sit top of their AFCON qualifying group with four points. They beat Burundi 1-0 in Tanzania in their opening match.

Cameroon have since played in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, exiting at the Group Stage. They were beaten 1-0 by Switzerland and drew 3-3 with Serbia. Their final match saw them Brazil 1-0 in a historic result.

They could only draw 1-1 against Namibia on Friday. Olivier Kemen got a second half equaliser to rescue a point.
