Japan v Cameroon Odds: World Cup Group C Match Preview

The supposed two weaker teams in World Cup Group E meet at the Free State Stadium in what promises to be an entertaining match that could produce plenty of goals. The Bookmakers have made the Cameroons favourites to win the match with odds of 11/10 with Ladbrokes.com and have Japan priced at 5/2 with the draw being a 23/10 option.

Cameroon are one of the African stalwart teams having qualified for their sixth World Cup. They have a best finish of the quarter finals achieved in 1990, but by and large have been regarded as an entertaining team with no real prospects of winning; the same could be said about them this year too.

Betting Preview Japan v Cameroon

For Japan this is their fourth World Cup and they are still waiting to win their first match overseas. It is a history that does not auger too well for their chances this year, but if they can get away without losing this opener then they have an outside chance of qualifying into the knock out stages. In Keisuke Honda, they have a player of real quality, who can turn a game very easily should he get the opportunity to do so. We like the look of the odds of 6/1 for him to be the first goal scorer for his team and the 11/1 about him being the opening goalscorer in the match.

The player most will be backing to be opening scorer in the match however is the Inter Milan striker, Samuel Etoo, still regarded as one of the best strikers in the world and the current Cameroon talisman. Etoo is a 4/1 shot with ladbrokes to score the first goal in the match and is also a tasty looking 11/2 to score two goals or more in the match.

We think that this match will end in a draw but a draw with goals, a 2-2 scoreline looks good to us and we will be backing that with odds of 14/1 with Ladbrokes which represents excellent value for any World Cup punter.
