Cameroon vs Comoros Prediction, Betting Tips & Booking Code (Sep 24)

Cameroon are eager to make up for the disappointment of not reaching the 2026 World Cup. They start their AFCON qualifying campaign against Comoros at the Roumdé Adjia Stadium.

Baleba a key absentee as Cameroon build for the future

Cameroon are missing their star midfielder Carlos Baleba due to injury. The midfielder completed a €76m move from Brighton to Manchester United in the summer, but is yet to feature in the Premier League for his new club because of his ankle issue.

André Onana, Vincent Aboubakar, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and André-Frank Zambo Anguissa are other notable absentees. David Pagou is clearly keen to use this break to start building a new, younger squad. Seven uncapped players have been called up.

Christian Kofane will have a major role to play in the years to come for Les Lions Indomptables. The 20-year-old has scored twice in four Bundesliga appearances for Bayer Leverkusen this term and should lead the line against Comoros.

Cameroon predicted lineup vs Comoros (4-2-3-1): Ngapandouetnbu; Tchatchoua, Keben, Kotto, Nagida; Avom, Fosso; Mbeumo, Namaso, Alioum; Kofane

Comoros hit by injuries ahead of qualifying campaign

Hubert Velud was recently appointed to oversee the next chapter in the history of the Comoros national team. The experienced Frenchman is also looking to bring younger players through, with veterans Youssouf M'Changama and Faïz Selemani left out of this squad.

The visitors have also been weakened by a number of injuries in the buildup to this game. Rafiki Saïd, Myziane Maolida, Ismaël Boura and Ramaine Daou are all set to miss out.

A conservative 5-4-1 structure is likely in such a tough away fixture. Aboubacar Ali Abdallah may be tasked with leading the line. The 20-year-old scored once in three appearances for France's U19 team, before switching his international allegiance to the African nation last year.

Comoros predicted lineup vs Cameroon (5-4-1): Pandor; Toibibou, Kari, Omari, Mohamed, K. Abdallah; Lutin, Bourhane, Z. Youssouf, Zakouani; Ali Abdallah

Cameroon vs Comoros Prediction

  • Safe Tip: Both teams to score - No
  • Odds: 1.41 (22Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Cameroon 1-0 Comoros
  • 22Bet Booking Code: 2N76F

Key stats:

  • Only three of the past 10 Cameroon matches have seen both teams score.
  • None of the previous six official fixtures involving Comoros has delivered goals for each side.
  • There has been no more than one goal in any of the visiting team's past five internationals.

Comoros are organised defensively, with two of their three matches at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations ending 0-0. Even a strong Morocco side needed 55 minutes to break through against Les Coelacantes. However, Velud doesn't have much quality in attack to call upon, with selection issues adding to his problems ahead of this game.

Backing Both teams to score - No is the smart approach. That has landed in each of the last three Cameroon fixtures. It was also a winning bet in 64% of games involving Les Lions Indomptables during qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.

Cameroon vs Comoros Prediction, Value Tip

  • Value Tip: Comoros +1.5 Handicap
  • Odds: 2.06 (22Bet)
  • 22Bet Booking Code: QJZ6F

Only one of the past three meetings has seen Cameroon triumph by more than one clear goal. The hosts are unlikely to be at their best in this contest, with some key players such as Baleba and Onana missing.

Backing Comoros with a +1.5 handicap offers value. The visitors have only conceded once across their past five internationals.

Verdict: Both teams to score - No (1.41) — Cameroon 1-0 Comoros
