Kenya will square off against Cameroon at the Mandela National Stadium in the group stage of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers on Monday. The two teams met in the reverse fixture last week and the Indomitable Lions recorded a comfortable 4-1 home win.
Vincent Aboubakar scored from the penalty spot in the ninth minute while Martin Hongla and Bryan Mbeumo added goals in quick succession before halftime. Christian Mougang Bassogog scored their fourth goal in the 55th minute.
The hosts suffered their first loss of the campaign on Friday and will look to bounce back with a win at home. Cameroon registered their second win of the campaign, conceding for the first time in that win.

Kenya vs Cameroon Prediction
The Harambee Stars suffered their first loss of the AFCON qualifiers on Friday, conceding four goals in a match for the first time since 2021, and will look to improve on that record. They have suffered two defeats on the trot in this fixture while conceding seven goals.
The Indomitable Lions head into the match on a five-game unbeaten streak and will look to continue their form here. They have won three of their last four games in the AFCON qualifiers, scoring eight goals, and are strong favorites.
Christopher Wooh was subbed off in the first half after a head trauma on Friday and is not an option for this match. He is out of any immediate danger and will undergo further tests. Jean-Charles Castelletto should start in Wooh's place.
Considering the visitors' unbeaten record in this fixture and better goalscoring record, the Indomitable Lions should be able to record a comfortable win.
