Cameroon vs Ghana Prediction & Betting tips
Can the defending champion from Cameroon fix the ticket for the knockout stage in the second match? The “untamable lions” started confidently in the Africa Cup 2019 with a 2-0 win over Guinea-Bissau. In the second match, Group F’s top match between Cameroon and Ghana – a rematch of the semi-finals of 2017!
The victory of the Elves of Clarence Seedorf against Guinea-Bissau could have been much better with better chance utilization. Cameroon delivered one of the strongest performances on matchday one. Ghana – at least in the semi-finals of the last six African Cups – started with a disappointing 2-2 draw against Benin and is thus under pressure against the “untamable lions”. In a defeat threatens the early out.
Cameroon :
Two years ago, Cameroon had no one on their mind, but the untamable lions could not be tamed and Cameroon celebrated its fifth title at the African continental championships. For the first time since 2002, an African Cup was retracted again. The team of Clarence Seedorf – who has been working for Cameroon since August last year – is not necessarily one of the favorites again this year, but the defending champion impressed with a playfully appealing performance in the opening game against Guinea-Bissau. With better chance exploitation would have been a clear victory in the field of the possible, but ultimately the 2-0 success was highly deserved. The only downer was the injury-related substitution of Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting. The PSG attacker is the captain of the national team and whether he can come up against Ghana again, is currently still uncertain. His likely replacement would be Clinton N’Jie.
Under former world-class player Clarence Seedorf, Cameroon has played eight official internationals and has a 3-3-2 record. Goals are not to be expected, as they have scored a maximum of two goals in seven of the eight international matches. In addition, there were only two internationals, in which both Cameroon met and had to accept a goal.
Ghana:
The Black Stars from Ghana are the big constant in African football. The big hit did not succeed in the past few years, but the team has been at least the semi-finals in each of the last six African Cups. However, after the first game at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2019, this semi-final is a fair distance away. Head coach Kwesi Appiah’s team had to settle for underdog Benin with a disappointing 2-2 draw and struggled after the match with the referee. After the Ayew brothers made the early backlog, defender John Boye was sent off in a curious manner. The goalkeeper wanted to carry out a free kick in his own half. Boye dropped the ball and was sent off to play delay with yellow-red. Ghana had the game under control at that time and the underdog was seldom dangerous, but Benin was able to make up in defeat.
After the false start the pressure in the fight of the group F is great, because with a defeat the ticket in the direction of the knockout phase could already be a long way off. However, one of the advantages for Ghana is the fact that the Black Stars play in Group F. Before the third group match, Ghana will definitely know how many points are needed to reach the knockout stage. Even in the event of a defeat Ghana would still have theoretical chances for the knockout phase. On the three-way market, a prognosis between Cameroon and Ghana seems extremely dire, as there are no tendencies to identify.
Ghana’s squad seems very unbalanced. With Atletico player Thomas, there is an absolute top star in the team. The mentioned Ayew brothers (sons of Abedi Pele) are also the most football fans also a term. But in the width of the squad drops significantly.
