Cameroon vs Libya is set to take place in the World Cup Qualifiers on 26th March at Stade Omnisport Ahmadou Ahidjo. The hosts were drawn alongside Cape Verde, Libya, Angola, Mauritius, and Eswatini in Group D. Cameroon are currently in second place with nine points winning two matches, drawing three matches and losing one match. They have been impeccable in their last five matches being unbeaten winning two matches and drawing three however their quality is more than enough to win rather than to draw matches causing them to drop points.

Libya on the other hand started a new chapter under Aliou Cisse on Thursday in which they faced a disappointing 1-1 draw against Angola. Libya are in third place with eight points winning two matches, drawing two matches, and losing one match. Their form has also been great in the last five matches winning two matches, drawing two matches and losing only one match. Libya's main concern would be to maintain defensive stability since Cameroon's attacking prowess has improved significantly with them scoring seven goals in their last two home matches.
