Mozambique and Cameroon meet at Estádio do Costa do Sol, in a match for this phase of the Africa Cup of Nations Qualification (Group Stage). These two teams have never met before, so this will be their first head-to-head meeting. In this game the home factor may be decisive, as Mozambique presents considerable differences in its results at home and as a visitor.

After 1 win and 1 draw, the home team is currently in 1st position, with 4 points won. In the last match, they tied (2‑2) in an away match against Cape Verde Islands, after in the previous match, having won (2‑0) at home against Rwanda.

In the last 6 home matches for all competitions, Mozambique has won 4, tied 1 and lost 1. Their attack has scored regularly, scoring goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.
After a series of good results, Mozambique was unstoppable against Cameroon in the last round. Now playing at home, he hopes to correct the mistakes that were crucial to this loss. She’s still alive in a fairly balanced tone, but she knows she needs to show better team play so she won’t be surprised again. Its defensive system is the main sector to adjust.
Cameroon :
The visiting team is currently in the 2nd position, with 4 points won, after 1 victory and 1 draw. In the penultimate match, they tied at home against the Cape Verde Islands by (0‑0). In the last match, they won away against Rwanda by (0‑1). This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, it presents similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 games it has registered 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses as a visitor, with 23 goals scored and 13 suffered; against 6 victories, 6 draws and 3 defeats in his stadium, with 15 goals scored and 8 suffered. In the last match they played, for the Friendlies, they drew with Rwanda at home by (0‑0). In their last away match, for the Friendlies, they drew (1‑1) against Congo. In their last 10 away matches, Cameroon have 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. Their defense has been very strong as they have only conceded goals in 2 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 11 matches have ended with Under 1.5 goals and 9 out of 11 have ended with Under 2.5 goals. This is a team that scores few times first and that only managed to open the scoring in 2 of its last 11 games, and never reached the break in advantage.
After coming from successive draws, Cameroon finally showed his strength in the last round and thrashed in his game. His attack, which had been showing a very fragile team game, without risking the opposing goal, became dangerous again. Another highlight is always his solid defense. In this game you enter as the leader of the table and a victory can mean an early classification.
