On Tuesday, March 28, the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers will take place at the Dobsonville Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa, between Cameroon and Namibia.
Friday’s matchup between the two teams ended in a 1-1 draw in Yaounde, the capital of Cameroon. Olivier Kemen made up for Peter Shalulile’s first-half goal for the visitors after the break.
With four points from two games, the Indomitable Lions, aiming for their fifth consecutive qualification, lead Group C, while Namibia is second with two points.
With just one game remaining to secure their place in the Cote d’Ivoire finals, both teams could make a few adjustments to force a win. After Christopher Wooh went off on Friday with an injury, Cameroon may be without him. If Wooh is ruled out, veteran defender Nicolas N’Koulou might try to get a spot.
Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo may keep his place in the attack as he tries to score his first international goal, but VfL Bochum midfielder Pierre Kunde may get the start for his promising appearance last week.
Namibia, on the other hand, lost one person in their previous meeting with Cameroon. Ananias Gebhardt was able to take Charles Hambira’s place at the heart of the defense because he was hurt.

Namibia vs Cameroon Prediction :
In the most recent match, Namibia defeated Cameroon despite having only 29% possession and completing fewer passes than the Indomitable Lions.
However, a rematch seems unlikely due to the fact that their Central African rivals could win and secure qualification, and they should do everything in their power to do the same.
Prediction: Namibia 1-2 Cameroon

Cameroon has won three games without a loss, but Namibia has only won twice in eight games. Namibia has only won twice in eight games.
namibia vs Cameroon Team News :
After suffering a first-half injury in Friday’s reverse match, Rennes defender Christopher Wooh is a major doubt for Cameroon.
Nicolas N’Koulou, a veteran center back, will partner Jean-Charles Castelletto in the middle of the defense if he is unable to recover from the injury. This will be his attempt to make his first start in the qualifiers.
Bryan Mbeumo, a forward for Brentford, was a bright spot last week and should keep his spot in the final third. Pierre Kunde, who had a good second-half cameo, might get a chance to start.
Like Cameroon, Namibia safeguards Charles Hambira experienced a first-half injury at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Arena and is supposed to pass on Tuesday’s conflict.
In order to protect Lloyd Junior Kazapua in goal, fellow veteran Ananias Gebhardt should join Riaan Hanamub, Denzil Haoseb, and Wigan Athletic fullback Ryan Nyambe in the back four.
Shalulile, who scored his first goal for Mamelodi Sundowns on Friday, now has 15 goals for club and country since the beginning of the year. We anticipate that he will once again lead the visitors’ attack.
