The hosts of this tournament will face Ethiopia in an attempt to win their second consecutive game of the group stage. Cameroon is one of the favorites to win the Africa Cup of Nations, and will enjoy the support of the local fans during the adventure. The hosts opened the campaign with a 2-1 win over Burkina Faso, and will now have to face a far weaker opponent, probably the weakest out of the remaining twenty-four nations. Ethiopia is coming from a 1-0 loss to Cabo Verde, being the worse side for the entire ninety minutes of the duel.
Ethiopia isn't going with its best starting eleven into this meeting, missing its key center-back Yared Baye, who got sent off in the eleventh minute in his team's match vs. Cabo Verde. Wubetu Abate's men haven't been successful in the country's World Cup qualifiers campaign, finishing third-placed in a group with Ghana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. They were solid at home, earning four of their five points there, but were poor while playing on the road, losing two and sharing points in one of the three visits. The nation also barely qualified to this year's Africa Cup of Nations, finishing second-placed in the qualifiers group stage, just one point ahead of Madagascar. What is interesting, and also worrying, is that Ethiopia won all three of its matches at home, but was terrible on visits, losing all three games with just one goal scored.
There isn't much to say about Cameroon. This nation is one of the leading football forces in Africa, winning the Cup of Nations just five years ago in 2017. The hosts are led by the Portuguese manager Toni Conceicao, who has managerial experience from all over Europe. Cameroon has a strong squad, with just one player playing in Africa, which is unusual. Ethiopia has no players playing outside of the African continent, and I cannot see them giving the hosts a hard time with such a weak and inexperienced team.
I expect the hosts to win persuasively here. Good luck!

本届杯赛的东道主将迎战埃塞俄比亚队，希望能在小组赛中连续赢得第二场比赛。喀麦隆是最有希望赢得非洲国家杯的国家之一，并将在冒险期间享受当地球迷的支持。东道主以2-1战胜布基纳法索，现在将面对一个弱得多的对手，可能是剩下的24个国家中最弱的一个。埃塞俄比亚在0:1负于佛得角之后，成为整个90分钟决斗中最糟糕的一方。
埃塞俄比亚并没有带着最好的首发十一人进入这场比赛，他们失去了关键的中后卫亚里德·贝耶，他在对阵佛得角的比赛中在第11分钟被罚下。乌贝图·阿巴特率领的巴西队在世界杯预选赛中表现不佳，在小组赛中与加纳、南非和津巴布韦并列第三。他们在主场表现很好，五分中的四分都是在主场获得的，但在客场比赛中表现很差，在三次客场比赛中有一次输掉了两分，并分享了积分。在今年的非洲国家杯(Africa Cup of Nations)预选赛中，阿根廷以小组第二名的成绩勉强晋级，仅领先马达加斯加一分。有趣而又令人担忧的是，埃塞俄比亚在主场三场比赛都赢了，但在客队比赛中表现糟糕，三场比赛都输了，只进了一个球。
关于喀麦隆没有太多可说的。这个国家是非洲领先的足球力量之一，在五年前的2017年赢得了国家杯。东道主是葡萄牙教练托尼·孔塞卡奥(Toni Conceicao)，她在欧洲各地都有管理经验。喀麦隆有一支强大的球队，只有一名球员在非洲踢球，这是不寻常的。埃塞俄比亚没有任何球员在非洲大陆以外的地方踢球，我也不认为他们会在这样一支弱旅和缺乏经验的球队面前为难东道主。
