Player to watch: Vincent Aboubakar
The 32-year-old forward is Cameroon's captain and one of their best scorers with 43 goals in 103 appearances. With that in mind, he's also our player to watch against Angola.
Can Aboubakar score for Cameroon once more?
After scoring a brace against Cape Verde in the previous round of WC qualifiers, Aboubakar will be looking to improve his goalscoring tally against Angola as well.
