The match

Cameroon are set for their final World Cup build-up match, against Panama in Abu Dhabi ahead of three matches in Group G against favorites Brazil, Serbia and Switzerland. Cameroon are billed the underdogs in the group but they’ve already shown their mettle in dealing with adversity and will want to take their best game and players to the competition. Cameroon have struggled in recent matches though; they go into this game winless in three matches – a draw and two losses. They have one clean sheet in the last seven matches and in two of their last three matches they failed to score. Each of Cameroon’s last four matches produced under 2.5 goals.

Unlike Cameroon, Panama will not be at the 2022 World Cup. They weren’t among the top four finishers in the qualifiers after their first ever World Cup appearance in Russia in 2018. A brief run of good form in the Nations League in the CONCACAF region in June has been overtaken by a run of poor form in recent matches. Panama have managed just a win in their last six matches. They are also winless in the last three matches, like Cameroon, though they’ve lost just one of the three matches. Three of their last five matches have seen under 2.5 goals scored and Panama have managed to score in each of their last four matches

Key Statistics

Panama have scored in each of their last four matches.

Cameroon have failed to score in two of their last three matches.

Cameroon’s last four matches have ended in under 2.5 goals.

Three of Panama’s last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

The bet of our experts

Panama will use this game as part of their recovery plans following a dismal run in recent matches, and failures in the World Cup qualifiers. Cameroon have a different plan with the game – preparation for the World Cup. The African giants should be the stronger side here but we doubt this game will have much fireworks, thus under 2.5 goals will do.
