Cameroon vs Brazil Tonight, Lineups and Score Predictions
Brazil is likely to lose its second tier team when it meets Cameroon . However, the Selecao is predicted to still win with a difference of two goals.
Brazil has confirmed qualification for the Round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup after picking up six points in the first two matches in Group G. The third match will face Cameroon at the Lusail Iconic Stadium, Saturday (2/12/2022) early morning WIB.
Given the busy schedule, Brazil will most likely rotate some of its forward players. Especially after Neymar's injury which kept him out of the rest of the tournament.
Not to mention at the back, Danilo was also absent due to injury in the match against Serbia. Samba Team coach Tite certainly doesn't want more players to fall.
Therefore several players such as Bruno Guimaraes, Alex Telles, Antony, and Gabriel Jesus will reportedly be lowered.
Despite playing with the 'B Team', Brazil is thought to still be too tough for Cameroon who are aiming for a win to pave the way to the Round of 16.
Because, Cameroon with one point is still in third place in the standings. To qualify, they also need help from Serbia to beat Switzerland with just one goal difference or end in a draw.
Cameroon in the second match recovered from two goals behind and played 3-3 against Serbia. The duet of strikers Vncent Aboubakar and Eric Choupo-Moting is expected to provide a threat to the Brazilian back line which has not conceded at all.
Can Cameroon surprise Brazil? According to Oddschecker's records, there are not many candidates for Cameroon to win, only at 28/1 for a score of 1-0 and 2-1 at 28/1.
Meanwhile, the betting house favors Brazil, which is predicted to win with a score of 2-0 (32/5) or 1-0 (34/5).
Looking at the results of the meeting between the two teams in the 2014 World Cup which ended in Brazil winning 4-1, it feels like the five times world champion could bring three points.
