Brazil vs Cameroon Prediction – 2022 World Cup: Who Will Win?

Brazil vs Cameroon Preview

Fans based in the UK can watch the game on ITV and ITVX, which kicks off at 19:00 pm GMT. At the same time, Serbia vs Switzerland will also be shown as the battle for second place will also be determined by the result of this fixture.

This is how the table currently stands before kick-off:

As you can see Switzerland, Cameroon, and Serbia can all still qualify and join the Brazilian national squad in the last 16. There are many factors involved with a must-win needed for the Serbia and Cameroon teams. For the Swiss, a draw could be enough if Cameroon loses to Brazil. However, as mentioned, the Swiss could be top of the table if Brazil loses, and they win. The final positioning is all important because the group winner of Group G will face the second-place team in Group H. The team to finish second in Group G will then play the winner of Group H. So, will Brazil face Portugal in the last 16? There’s a lot that can happen once 19:00 pm comes around.

🏠 Brazil Form and Team News

It is highly likely that Neymar will still be out of this fixture and that a few changes are made to face the Cameroon squad. So far, the results have been great for Brazil with 2 wins out of 2, but some players have shone and others have been mute. Their leading scorer Richarlison is on 2 goals and will likely start this game. Brazil’s tactical play and approach have been similar to the way they performed in the qualifiers. They are taking their time to press in games, which has been a little frustrating for the fans that would like to see quicker movement on and off the ball. Their opening game against Serbia wasn’t as clear cut as the 2-0 score line would have you believe. Plus, a 1-0 win over Switzerland is again, less than convincing. So, can Cameroon be the team to upset the balance?

Brazil starting Lineup

In the game against Switzerland, Brazil played in the 4-3-3 formation. With Neymar in the team and as they did against Serbia, Brazil adopt the 4-2-3-1 formation. Now, this is something they might do, as there is no great urgency to attack the game. It offers defensive cover and gives them that counter-attacking press. Which will frustrate the Cameroon squad because of how they most likely will line up.

Here’s our predicted starting 11:

GoalKeeper:

1 Alisson

Defence:

14 Militao

4 Marquinhos

3 Silva

6 Sandro

Defensive Midfield:

5 Casemiro

7 Paqueta

Midfield:

11 Raphinha

20 V. Junior

8 Fred

Forward:

9 Richarlison

⭐ Brazil Players to Watch

With a place in the last 16 booked, will the team be focused on this match? Whilst they may take the game a little easier, we think these three players will still possess the danger that could leave Cameroon heading out of the contest early.

• Richarlison: Position: Forward. 40 caps, 19 goals, and 7 assists. Currently carrying 2 goals, and will look to add to this and be on the end of many crosses into the box.
• Raphael Dias Belloli (Raphinha) : Position: Left Wing. 13 caps, 5 goals, and 4 assists. So far has made the most crosses for the team but has been less of a threat in front of the goal. Always a danger man though and might get the assist in this game.
• Carlos Henrique Venancio Casemiro: Position: Central Defensive Midfield. 67 caps, 6 goals, 3 assists, and 17 bookings. Scorer of the winning goal against Switzerland, Casemiro has so far been the team’s best player in this tournament. No doubt his great form will continue, even if it means getting booked in the process.

☍ Cameroon Form and Team News

Cameroon opened the tournament against Switzerland and lost 1-0. This was a closely contested match with Cameroon having better of the stats, with the exception of the most important one, goals scored. The second match against Serbia produced one of the best games of the tournament. This was a 3-3 draw and did have all the drama as the scoreline suggests. Cameroon took the lead on 29 minutes through Castelletto. Then in the space of 3 minutes, Serbia scored 2 goals within the added time of the first half with goals from Pavlovic and Savic on 46 minutes and 48 minutes. Within 10 minutes of the second half, Mitrovic made it 3-1 to Serbia. Then 10 minutes later, Aboubakar makes it 3-2, and 3 minutes after that, Choupo-Moting on 66 minutes made it 3-3. Crazy game, but it shows that Cameroon have the goals in them, they have the mentality to fight back, but their defence isn’t the best.

Cameroon starting Lineup

In the match against Serbia and Switzerland, Cameroon opted for a 4-3-3 formation, Positive attacking but leaves the team overexposed wide on the wings at times. This has been a counter-attacking problem that Brazil most likely will thrive on. Despite this, Cameroon will most likely keep 4-3-3 because it is a must-win game, and will hope that Brazil is more focused on their qualification to the last 16

Here is Cameroon’s predicted starting 11:

GoalKeeper:

16 Epassy

Defence:

19 Fai

21 Castelletto

3 N’Koulou

25 Tolo

Midfield:

8 Anguissa

18 Hongla

15 Kunde

Forward:

20 Mbeumo

13 Choupo-Moting

12 Ekambi

⭐ Cameroon Players to Watch

It’s a matter of getting all three points and nothing else. While qualification is somewhat out of their hands, these three key players are the most likely to have an impact on the game the most.

• Karl Toko Ekambi: Position: Left Wing. 52 caps, 12 goals, and 3 assists. So far has had a good tournament and will need to help push them in their press for goals. Has a good eye for goal, so can pose a threat.
• Jean-Charles Castelletto: Position: Defender. 16 caps, 1 goal, and 1 booking. A goal scorer against the Serbians. Has had a mixed tournament, but for a newcomer on the international stage, it is expected. Will need his naïve bravery to help cancel out the Brazilian attack.
• Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting: Position: Striker. 71 caps, 20 goals, and 4 assists. Perhaps the best player so far in the attacking sense for Cameroon. Has plenty of experience and will be the man the rest of the team will try to get balls to on attacks and corners.

🥇 Who Will Win? Brazil vs Cameroon Prediction

It might be a game that could easily end in a draw. Brazil do not need to be at their best, plus, do they want to face an in-form Portuguese side in the next round should they finish second? We think that Cameroon might be too lacking in talent to win this game and the nerves may just get the better of them. It will be a close match with the South American side taking the points in a 1-0 win.

Our match prediction: Brazil to win.
