Senegal vs Cameroon – Betting tips & odds
Hot Tip – Senegal to Win (1/1)
- Senegal impressed on matchday one in their 3-0 win over Gambia.
- Cameroon drew their group opener against Guinea and they have failed to win six of their last eight games overall.
Senegal eased to a 3-0 win over Gambia in their first fixture in Group C and another victory could be in the works against an unconvincing Cameroon outfit on Friday. The Lions of Teranga have won four of their last five assignments overall and our opening Senegal vs Cameroon tip backs them to prevail again here.

Senegal vs Cameroon Team News
Senegal
Senegal manager Aliou Cisse deployed his troops in a 4-3-3 formation against Gambia on matchday one and following an excellent result, the coach is likely to stick with the same system on Friday. Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson will be pushing to start up top, however. Ex-Liverpool star Sadio Mane could be one to watch closely in the first goalscorer stakes this week.
Predicted Lineup for Senegal: Mendy – Diatta, Koulibaly, Niakhate, Jakobs – Camara, Diallo, Gueye – Sarr, Mane, Jackson
Cameroon
Cameroon are set to be without first-choice keeper Andre Onana again on Friday after the Man Utd stopper ran into some air travel difficulties. Fabrice Ondoa should continue between the sticks and changes to Cameroon's XI's elsewhere should be minimal.
Predicted Lineup for Cameroon: Ondoa – Castelletto, Wooh, Moukoudi, Yongwa – Nitcham, Kemen, Anguissa – Magri, Nkoudou, Toko-Ekambi
Confirmed lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to Watch – Lamine Camara
Lamine Camara was the star of the show for Senegal on matchday one when the 20-year-old buried two of his team’s three goals in their 3-0 triumph over Gambia. Camara isn’t known for his goal-scoring prowess, so the Metz midfielder should have a real kick in his step when he features against Cameroon on Friday.
