The two teams will face off on Wednesday in South Africa, in a match counting for the 5th day of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

The Croatian coach is determined to create a sensation during the big clash against the five-time African champions.

I respect Cameroon but I'm not afraid of the Indomitable Lions. Let's leave the past behind.

A rather bold statement, given the difference in class between the two national teams.

The record of direct confrontations between Cameroon and Eswatini

The two nations have faced each other twice in the past. In 1992, Cameroon won at home with a score of 5-0 in a match that was part of the 1994 World Cup qualifiers. The second leg, which took place in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), ended in a goalless draw.
