16/01/2023 10:00 pm
The Olympic Stadium plays host to Cameroon and Republic of Congo on Monday as they kick of their respective 2023 African Nations Championship campaigns.
Cameroon had far too much class for The Secretary Birds of Sudan after claiming a routine 2-0 victory in Monday’s warm-up encounter.
Since a 1-0 defeat to Switzerland in their World Cup opener, the Indomitable Lions are unbeaten in five successive matches either side of the new year.
Next up for Alioum Saidou’s side in the challenge of an opposing side who just about have the upper hand in this fixture, winning three and losing two of the pevious nine meetings.
Off the back of their best-ever CHAN achievement in 2020 when they managed a fourth-placed finish, Cameroon head to Algeria with a point to prove.
Congo wrapped up their preparations for the African Nations Championship with a 1-0 defeat to Senegal’s Lions of Teranga on Monday.
The game was decided in the fifth minute as Lamine Camara grabbed the crucial goal to sink Jean Ngoya Obackas’ side in a tight affair.
As a result, The Red Devils have now suffered defeat in three of their six most recent matches and are in urgent need of a morale-boosting result.
Having reached the quarter-finals in each of their last two CHAN appearances, Congo will back themselves to make another deep run into the latter stages.
