Dynamo Douala enter this fixture in 13th place, with 17 points from 19 matches, embroiled in a fierce fight to avoid relegation. However, they carry momentum into this clash after a crucial 1-0 away win over Bamboutos FC in Matchday 19—a much-needed result that snapped a three-match losing streak and reignited hope among their faithful. Their season so far has seen 4 wins, 5 draws, and 10 losses, with a goal difference of -11 (11 goals scored, 22 conceded). While goals have been hard to come by, their recent victory proved they can rise when it matters most.
On the opposite side, Canon Yaoundé have their sights firmly set on the top half of the table. Occupying 5th position with 30 points, Canon are in solid form after edging Fauve Azur Elite 1-0 last time out. With 8 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses this season, and a balanced goal record of 20 scored and 17 conceded (+3 GD), Canon have shown both attacking threat and defensive stability. Their recent form—three wins, one draw, and one loss from the last five—marks them as one of the stronger sides entering the final stretch.
This matchup paints a classic tale: a team desperate to survive versus a side pushing for excellence. Dynamo will look to harness their home advantage and gritty spirit to pull off an upset, while Canon aim to keep their momentum rolling and cement their place among the league's elite.
