Afcon 2015 – GUINEA VS CAMEROON: STARTING LINEUPS FOR A DECISIVE CLASH IN GROUP D
After earning a point each in their respective openers, Guinea and Cameroon are back in action this Saturday for their second Group D match at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations. With the earlier draw between Ivory Coast and Mali (1-1), the door is wide open for either side to seize top spot in the group with a win tonight.
High Stakes, Strong Selections
Both coaches have opted to field their strongest available lineups, reflecting the significance of the encounter.
Guinea welcomes back Seydouba Soumah, their top scorer in the qualifiers, who missed the first match against the Elephants. The Syli National attack will also feature Ibrahima Traoré and Mohamed Yattara, with Kevin Constant reinforcing the midfield.
On the Cameroon side, captain Stéphane M’Bia returns after suspension, while Ambroise Oyongo, the goal scorer against Mali, keeps his spot in defense. Vincent Aboubakar will lead the attack.
