Cameroon vs Kenya Prediction & Betting Tips - AFCON
by Kennedy Kechula in AFCON Predictions
The first of the Cameroon v Kenya 2025 AFCON qualifying double-header will be hosted in Douala, Cameroon on Friday. This match pits the two leading teams in Group J as the Indomitable Lions and Harambee Stars are tied on four points. Read on for our prediction of this game.
Cameroon lost their spot at the top of this group after their 0-0 draw with Zimbabwe last time out. They will be looking to regain the lead in the home leg of this encounter.
This will mark the first meeting between the two nations since the 2010 friendly which Cameroon won 3-1. The hosts will want to replicate that but have struggled on the attacking front lately.
They’ve only managed more than a goal in one of the last five matches.
Kenya are coming here as real challengers for top spot though they’ll be the underdogs across their next two fixtures. A 2-1 win away to Namibia sent them top of this group with a superior goal difference and they have something to defend.
Anything but defeat will ensure they stay top, and with a three-game unbeaten run, they’ll be confident heading to Cameroon.
In recent matches, Kenya have improved defensively and arrive for this game with four clean sheets in six matches. The only goal they’ve conceded in the last three matches came very late against Namibia.
Being less fancied here, we expect them to line up defensively. Like it has been in six of their last seven matches, this too could yield less than three goals.

Our Cameroon vs Kenya Prediction
Kenya will be carrying into this game three clean sheets in their last five matches while Cameroon have two in five. Cameroon failed to score in two of their last five matches, same as Kenya. As a result, the two nations have been in the midst of low scoring matches lately.
With the skillset in the two teams, Kenya are expected to line up more defensively. Another game with low scores is likely here and our prediction for Cameroon v Kenya is for under 2.5 goals.
