Les Astres currently sit in 9th position with 25 points from 19 matches. Despite their promising potential, inconsistency has plagued their campaign. They come into this match smarting from a frustrating 2-1 home loss to Fortuna Mfou, where a late goal denied them even a share of the spoils.

With a record of 7 wins, 4 draws, and 8 losses and a narrow -1 goal difference (24 scored, 25 conceded), Les Astres are eager to tighten up at the back and rediscover their winning edge. Their recent form—just one win in five—underscores the urgency to bounce back, and what better stage to do so than against one of the league’s top contenders?

Sitting proudly in 2nd place with 38 points from 19 matches, Gazelle FA are in red-hot form and firmly in the title hunt. Their dominant 3-0 victory over Union Douala in Matchday 19 served as a warning to the rest of the league—this team means business.

With an impressive tally of 11 wins, 5 draws, and only 3 defeats, Gazelle boast a remarkable +20 goal difference (38 GF, 18 GA). Unbeaten in their last five matches with three wins and two draws, they carry both form and confidence into Douala, looking to keep the pressure on league leaders Colombe Sportive.

For Les Astres, this is more than just a battle for points—it’s a chance to make a statement and climb further into the top half. For Gazelle FA, it’s an opportunity to stay firmly in the title race and continue their surge toward the summit.

Can Les Astres defend their home ground and spoil Gazelle’s momentum, or will the visitors’ firepower and form silence the Douala faithful?
