Cameroon will aim to reclaim the top spot in Group D of the CAF 2026 World Cup qualifiers when they host Libya in their matchday six fixture at the Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo on Tuesday.
The hosts are second in the standings with nine points, while the visitors are third after amassing eight points across five fixtures.
Cameroon’s quest for a ninth appearance at the FIFA World Cup got trickier after matchday five following a 0-0 draw against the less-fancied Eswatini.
Although the Indomitable Lions dominated large spells of the match, they could not find a way past the hosts, due to profligacy in front of goal, and a resolute Eswatini defence.
Returning to their stomping ground where they claimed their two wins of the qualifying series, Marc Brys‘s team will be aiming for a third victory as they push to reclaim top spot.
Cameroon are unbeaten in the current campaign, and that is largely down to the quality within their squad.
Besides the quality within their ranks, the hosts have been imperious, scoring for fun on their turf and they are currently on a three-game winning streak against their opponents at home.
While Libya have a tendency to defend resolutely, the hosts have just enough quality to edge the visitors, therefore we predict a 1-0 triumph for Cameroon.
