Young Sports Academy vs Gazelle Prediction: The road team will not drop points

Stade Municipal De Mbouda will host the week seven Cameroon Elite One encounter between Young Sports Academy and Gazelle. The two teams could not secure a win in their last league game and will hope for a better result here. How will this game unfold? I look into the full match previews below, which offer betting opportunities.

Young Sports Academy

Young Sports Academy, like every other game, struggled to show competitiveness against Dynamo Douala the previous time out and lost. In a game that ended 1-0, Ulrich Mpeck's strike in the 61st minute was all their opponent needed to take maximum points. However, this team has failed to win any of their first six games of the season, which makes every fixture crucial for them. The home side has conceded the most goals this season, eleven from just six games. While they sit at the bottom of the standings, Young Sports Academy has just two points from a possible 18.

Gazelle

Gazelle were held to a draw the previous time out by Aigle Moungo and will hope they can return to winning ways this time. In a game that ended 1-1, Gazelle needed to come from behind to avoid a defeat, thanks to Fernandez Monyebe's strike in the 59th minute cancelling their opponent’s lead just three minutes into the second half. However, Gazelle have an unbeaten run of games in five consecutive matches after their first-day game defeated Fortuna Mfou. The visiting team has 11 points from six games, being points levelled with Canon Yaounde and Dynamo Douala. In those games, Gazelle scored ten goals and conceded three.

Expert Betting Tips

Young Sports Academy have consistently failed to compete this season, and I expect a similar attitude from the home side. While Gazelle have so much stepped up their game, I do not see the title-chasing side losing their competition away from home this time. This is a clear fixture, and the visiting team seem like a very good side to back with confidence. Take Gazelle to win each half, and while their defence have been incredible, a bet on a few goals is a good option.
