Cameroon vs Ethiopia – Team Previews
Cameroon
Cameroon got their AFCON campaign off to a perfect start by defeating the Stallions of Burkina Faso 2-1 on Sunday.
Toni Conceicao’s men fell behind to Gustavo Sangare’s 24th-minute opener before hitting back through a pair of Vincent Aboubakar penalties.
The Indomitable Lions currently lead the way in Group A, level on points with Cape Verde who also claimed an opening-day triumph.
With a place in the last 16 at stake, the host nation will be keen to come out on top and get the job done before their final Group A contest against Cape Verde next week.
Vincent Aboubakar came so close to grabbing a hat-trick last time out where he was denied by the finest of margins and the forward is expected to lead the attack once again.
Collins Fai was on the receiving end of a wild challenge in the opening seconds of the Burkina Faso game but he should be fine to feature on Wednesday.
Predicted lineup; Andre Onana; Collins Fai, Jerome Onguene, Michael Ngadeu, Nouhou Tolo; Pierre Kunde, Zambo Anguissa, Samuel Oum Gouet; Karl Toko Ekambi, Vincent Aboubakar, Nicolas Ngamaleu
Ethiopia
Ethiopia have some catching up to do following a 1-0 loss to Cape Verde in their Group A opener on Sunday in Yaounde.
Julio Tavares opened the scoring on the cusp of half time and that was enough to sink Wubetu Abate’s men.
The Walia Ibex are now in a tearing hurry to save their AFCON campaign and avoid a fifth consecutive group-stage exit.
Yared Baye received his marching orders after just 11 minutes last time out and the 26-year-old is suspended for this one.
Mignot Debebe is the favourite to take Baye’s place in the starting XI after he came on as a first-half substitute last time out.
Predicted lineup; Teklemariam Shanko; Ramadan Yusef, Aschalew Tamene, Mignot Debebe, Suleman Hamid; Amanuel Yohannes, Mesud Mohammed, Surafel Dagnachew; Abubeker Nesir, Getaneh Kebede, Amanuel Gebremichael
