AFCON Betting Tips | Cameroon vs Egypt Prediction
The AFCON semi-finals are here and so are our AFCON betting tips for all those interested in how the games could go down. On 3 February, 2022, the Indomitable Lions, who are five-time AFCON champions, will be eager to take advantage of the home court and reach their ninth finals.
However, Egypt are bound to give them a tough time, especially after their more than impressive performance in the group stage and the knockout rounds. The match is scheduled for 20:00 and it will take place at the Olembe Stadium in Yaounde.
Cameroon vs Egypt Recent Form
A clash of the titans– that’s one way we can describe our expectations from the upcoming Cameroon vs Egypt game. Egypt are the only team with more AFCON titles than Cameroon, as many as seven. They have also participated in the tournament more times than any other nation, 25 out of 33.
So, what do AFCON betting tips have to say about the Indomitable Lions? They are unbeaten in eight games and want to obtain two impressive records after the semi-finals on Thursday– a win in eight consecutive semi-finals. But that’s not all. They also want to accomplish this without conceding.
The last time Cameroon lost was in the World Cup qualifiers against Ivory Coast, 2:1. They won four more games in this competition after that, 3:1 and 1:3 against Mozambique, 0:4 against Malawi and 1:0 against Ivory Coast. After that, they won four AFCON games and drew only one, 1:1 with Cape Verde, which was pretty unexpected. But a superb 0:2 win against Gambia last week landed them a solid position in the race for the title.
Their rivals, on the other hand, did not have a splendid run in the last couple of months, but what matters is that they’ve made it to the AFCON semis. However, in both their 1/8 and 1/4-final game, they had to obtain wins in the overtime. It was 0:0 with Ivory Coast before the penalties decided the winner, and then 1:1 with Morocco before Trezeguet scored in the 100th minute, assisted by the one and only Mohamed Salah.

However, it’s important to note that the last game they played was exactly five years ago, precisely in AFCON. It was 1:2 for Cameroon in the finals. The odds on Cameroon to win before the game were 3.10 and on Egypt 2.75 at the time. Even though Salah played at the time, his performance was not as he would have like it to be.
