MTN Elite One, Match Day 10 Preview

Stade de Mbouda, 1:30 PM February 2, 2025

In this crucial MTN Elite One relegation battle clash, PWD Bamenda will host Aigle Moungo at Stade de Mbouda at 1:30 PM on February 2, 2025.

Both sides are struggling for consistency this season, with PWD ranked 12th with 10 points, just one ahead of 13th placed Aigle, who with 9 points occupy one of 4 relagation positions in the league. This encounter promises to be a highly competitive and potentially decisive fixture for both teams as they aim to move up the standings.

PWD Bamenda, has had a somewhat underwhelming campaign so far. With just one win in their last five matches, they will be eager to turn their fortunes around and put in a strong performance for their supporters. The squad will rely heavily on their attacking players to break down Aigle’s defense and find the back of the net, which has been a struggle in recent outings.

Aigle Moungo, on the other hand, will also be determined to bounce back after a series of disappointing results. The team has shown flashes of promise but lacks the consistency needed to climb higher in the table. Their ability to stay compact defensively while being efficient in attack will be key if they are to leave Bamenda with any points.

Expect a tense, closely contested encounter with PWD more likely to bag all 3 points.

Lead referee Douswe Hilaire will be assisted by Bigoh Ronald and Aboubakar Bakoura on the lines, while Njichu Clauvis will serve as fourth official from bench.
