Gazelle vs Aigle Moungo Prediction: I am trusting Gazelle once again

Stade Annexe Roumdé Adjia will host the Cameroon Elite One encounter between Gazelle and Aigle Moungo. The two teams are coming off contrasting results, with Gazelle coming off consecutive victories. How will Aigle Moungo respond this new year? Below, I will preview this fixture and make predictions. 

Gazelle

Gazelle were at home against Les Astres before the end of 2024, and they secured maximum points. In a game that ended 1-0, Gazelle waited until the 66th minute to secure maximum points, thanks to Marius Kalgong Kada's strike. 

However, Gazelle have not lost any of their last four league matches of the season after being defeated by 12th-placed Fortuna Mfou in week one. In other games, Gazelle drew Colombe while picking wins over Union Douala and Bamenda. 

Gazelle has accumulated the second most points, ten. In those matches, Gazelle scored nine goals while conceding only two, as they sit a point behind Colombe, who is first placed. 

Aigle Moungo

Aigle Moungo's last league encounter was against Cotonsport, and they ended on the losing end. In a game that ended 2-1, Aigle Moungo came from behind to level the score before the end of the first half through a Herval Ndedi Kingue strike. However, a second-half strike from Fadyl in the 66th minute denied this team a point at the end of full-time. 

However, Aigle Moungo have failed to win any of their first five league matches this season. Their best results this season were a draw against Stade Renard and Union Douala. In the meantime, Aigle Moungo lost to Bamboutos FC and Colombe in other matches played this season. 

Aigle Moungo have only two points accumulated this season from their first five matches. This team has the same points as the bottom-placed Yong Sports Academy. In their games this season, Aigle Moungo scored only three goals while conceding seven in the same matches. 

Expert Betting Tips

This is the first meeting between these two teams, and I expect competitiveness from the opening minute. While Aigle Moungo have been struggling since their opening-day fixture, this is surely another tough road game I expect them to approach with improved defensive play. While Gazelle are doing so well now, I believe they have a chance to extend their consecutive run. The two teams will have their chances, especially considering how well they have reacted in attack lately. Yet, I feel Gazelle looks perfect as a team to win, while both teams should also find the back of the net.
