Cameroon vs Egypt - Live Stream

Hosts Cameroon take on Egypt at the Paul Biya Stadium on Thursday as the two most successful sides in the competition's history, with a combined 12 titles, battle for a place in the final. 

The sides last met in the 2017 final hosted by Gabon with the Indomitable Lions emerging triumphant in a 2-1 victory. 

With the backing of a passionate home crowd, Cameroon will enter the semi-final as favourites but Egypt have proved that they are no pushovers on course to the last four. 

Cameroon kicked off the tournament on January 9, coming from behind to defeat fellow semi-finalists Burkina Faso 2-1, followed up by a 4-1 demolition of Ethiopia. Toni Conceicao's side finished off their Group A campaign with a somewhat disappointing draw to Cape Verde, but it was their Round 16 fixture where it nearly came undone...

Comoros came into their clash with Cameroon without a recognised goalkeeper due to Covid absences, forced to play left-back Chaker AlHudur between the sticks from the get-go. Despite his diminutive stature, unfamiliarity with the possession and Comoros going down to 10-men in 8 minutes, the archipelago often looked like the better team.

Goals from Karl Toko Ekambi and Vincent Aboubakar booked passage to the quarter-final with a narrow 2-1 win. Their next opponents Gambia proved less of a threat, as the hosts comfortably advanced with a 2-0 victory.

The five-time winners of the Africa Cup of Nations will be under a weight of expectancy as the host nation, particularly as they are facing the most successful side in the competition's history.

Cameroon Predicted Team: Onana; Fai, Castelletto, Ngadeu, Tolo; Oum Gouet, Anguissa; Ekambi, Kunde, Ngamaleu; Aboubakar
