Cameroon vs Comoros: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - AFCON match preview

Hosts Cameroon are overwhelming favourites to reach the quarter-finals of their home Africa Cup of Nations tonight.

While Comoros certainly deserve respect for making it into the round of 16, particularly after beating Ghana, the Indomitable Lions will surely fancy their chances against one of the minnows of the AFCON - who will be forced to field an outfield player in goal.

Clearly, if the tournament has taught us anything so far, it’s that we should perhaps expect the unexpected - but Comoros beating the hosts would be one of the biggest shocks in history.

Algeria might have shown us that nothing can be taken for granted but surely Cameroon will be licking their lips at this one.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Cameroon vs Comoros is scheduled for a 7pm GMT kick-off tonight - Monday January 24, 2022.

Cameroon vs Comoros prediction

It’s just too difficult to look past Cameroon given the goalscoring form they’ve been in.

And with an outfield player set to be in goal for Comoros, the minnows could be on the receiving end of a real hammering.

Cameroon to win 5-0.
