South Africa vs Cameroon Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | AFCON 2025 Round of 16

Two giants take on each other in the AFCON 2025 round of 16.

In a major AFCON 2025 round of 16 match tonight, South Africa, bronze medallists in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, will take on five-time winners Cameroon.

The Indomitable Lions placed second in Group F, finishing the group stage behind the reigning champions Cote d’Ivoire. Meanwhile, Bafana Bafana advanced to the knockout stage as runners-up in Group B. The victor of this match will play either hosts Morocco or Tanzania in the quarterfinals.

South Africa started their tournament on December 22 with a 2-1 win over Angola. With six points from three group games, they enter the knockout stage with confidence.

Cameroon advanced from Group F with a campaign based on defensive organisation and resilience, which began on December 24 with a controlled 1-0 victory over Gabon. It demonstrated their ability to manage matches and protect narrow leads. As a result, Cameroon enter the AFCON 2025 round of 16 as one of the tournament’s most seasoned teams.

The Indomitable Lions have a strong AFCON history, being five-time champions who are accustomed to the rigours of knockout play. However, they have recently lost in the round of 16, which makes this match much more important.
