Niger will be greatly disappointed with their form in recent games. In their last six matches, they have suffered two defeats and earned four draws. This poor run of form has stretched for far too long for the nation’s liking. Luckily, for them, a path to the knockout stage is still open for them come the last matchday of the group stages. However, Niger will be aware of the fact that only three points will guarantee their spot in the next stage.
Cameroon have endured way too inconsistent and mixed results in their latest encounters. They have managed two victories along with three draws and a defeat in their last six outings. It was an eventful 2022 FIFA World Cup for Cameroon as they were winless against Switzerland and Serbia but managed a surprise victory against Brazil. They will hope to retain their top spot in the group and ensure qualification.
There are no fresh injury or suspension related issues for either of the two nations. This will help the coaches to go on and name their strongest XIs.
