Mauritius have a tough start to their 2026 World Cup qualification campaign as they travel to Cameroon in Group D. This will be the fifth meeting between these nations, and Cameroon have four straight wins in this encounter. Cameroon will be expected to easily win this group, in their quest for another World Cup appearance. They have Cape Verde, Angola, Eswatini and Libya to contend with in this group. Coming into this game, Cameroon lost their last two games, both friendly matches. In their most recent, they fell 1-0 to Senegal, having lost by the same margin to Russia. Cameroon have one win only in their last five matches and three losses make them look weak ahead of this game. However, they have one of the best runs in World Cup qualification in Africa. In five World Cup qualification matches, they’ve only lost once. At home in World Cup qualifiers, Cameroon have one loss in 28, winning 22. They’ve won without conceding in three of their last five World Cup qualification matches at home.

Mauritius will have a tough task here as they seek a first win in five meetings with Cameroon. They don’t have a very good run coming into this game; three of their last five matches ended in losses. They’ve also suffered six defeats in their last 10 matches. In two of their last three matches, Mauritius failed to score. They’ve scored more than once in just two of 10 games. The 1-0 win over Angola in their last away match is the only victory on the road for Mauritius in 18 outings. Their run of form isn’t any better when it comes to World Cup qualification; they’ve failed to win any of the last 10. The visitors have also failed to score in six of their last 10 World Cup qualification matches. Away from home, they’ve lost five times in seven World Cup qualification matches.
