Cameroon – Winless Run to Continue?
Cameroon’s 2022 World Cup campaign got off to a bad start last Thursday, as Song’s troops were narrowly beaten by Switzerland in Al Wakrah. To be fair to the Indomitable Lions, they put up a brave fight, but Breel Embolo’s goal just after half time won the points for the Swiss.
The matchday one reverse extended Cameroon’s winless run to five matches. Prior to the World Cup, the African side had lost to Uzbekistan and South Korea and drew with Jamaica and Panama. Their last win was a 2-0 Africa Nations Championship qualifying success over minnows Equatorial Guinea in early September.
Cameroon have their work cut out if they are to finish in the top two of Group G. After a tough game with Serbia on Monday, Song’s side finish up their group campaign with a fixture against World Cup favorites Brazil in Lusail.
This is Cameroon’s sixth World Cup since reaching the quarter-finals of Italia ’90, and they have failed to get out of the group in the last five. If they lose on Monday, they can forget about the knockouts once again. Find out how we think they will fare in our Cameroon vs Serbia picks and predictions below.
Cameroon Projected Lineup: Andre Onana, Nouhou Tolo, Nicolas N’Koulou, Jean-Charles Castelletto, Collins Fai, Martin Hongla, Samuel Oum Gouet, Andre Zambo Anguissa, Karl Toko Ekambi, Bryan Mbeumo, Eric Maxim Choup-Moting.
Cameroon Injuries: No current injuries.
Serbia – Serbs to Strike Back with Three Points?
Serbia are a soccer country on the rise. They have an excellent squad of players, and the 2022 version is their third World Cup as an independent nation. Serbia were eliminated in the group in South Africa in 2010 and again in Russia four years ago, but can the Serbs reach the last 16 this time?
They opened their tournament with a tough game with Brazil at Lusail Iconic Stadium. They held firm against the record World Cup winners and current favorites for over an hour, but Tottenham Hotspur striker Richarlison bagged a brace to give the Brazilians a comfortable 2-0 win in Lusail.
With Brazil now out of the way, Serbia can turn their attention to Cameroon and Switzerland. With the likes of Dusan Tadic and Aleksandar Mitrovic in their squad, the Eagles are more than capable of putting six points on the board and booking their place in the last 16.
If they can get past Cameroon on Monday, Stojkovic and his side will back themselves to get the job done against the Swiss in their final Group G match at Stadium 974 in Doha next week. Check out our Cameroon vs Serbia picks.
Serbia Projected Lineup: Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, Strahinja Pavlovic, Milos Veljkovic, Nikola Milenkovic, Filip Mladenovic, Sasa Lukic, Nemanja Gudelj, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Andrija Zivkovic, Dusan Tadic, Aleksandar Mitrovic.
Serbia Injuries: No current injuries.
Cameroon vs Serbia Pick and Prediction
Leading up to the World Cup, Serbia won five and drew one of six, seeing off the likes of Slovenia, Sweden, and Norway. The loss to Brazil was only their third defeat in 17 matches.
Cameroon are also looking to bounce back from an opening-round defeat. In contrast, they have won just one of their previous seven fixtures, losing four times along the way.
We are not anticipating a high-scoring affair, but we fancy the Serbs to edge past the Cameroonians at Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah. There is excellent value in +260 for Serbia to win by one goal. Also, put some money on the 2-1 Serbian win at the eye-opening price of +850.
