2026 World Cup qualifiers: Probable lineups for Cameroon vs Angola

Cameroon and Angola face off this Monday, October 13, 2025, at 4 p.m. GMT at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium. A pivotal encounter for the Indomitable Lions.

Second in Group D with 18 points (5 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss) behind Cape Verde (21 pts), the Indomitable Lions are still in the running for qualification for the 2026 World Cup. They must defeat Angola and hope for a Cape Verdean slip-up against Eswatini.

If they fail to clinch top spot, Marc Brys' men will aim to finish among the four best runners-up from the nine groups. They currently sit fifth, hindered by an inferior goal difference compared to the Stallions. That’s a crucial factor to keep in mind.

Marc Brys can count on all his attacking firepower to put on a show against Angola, especially Mbeumo, Etta Eyong, and Bassogog.

Probable lineups for Cameroon vs Angola:

Cameroon's likely starting XI: Onana – Nagida, Ngadeu, Castelleto, Tchatchoua – Baleba, Hongla, Zambo – Mbeumo, Bassogog, Etta Eyong.

Angola's likely starting XI: Neblu – Cruz, Carmo, Buatu, Mata, Nteka, Show, Fredy, Dala, Mabululu, Milson.
