We said: Senegal 1-0 Cameroon

Based on the first round of matches in this year's AFCON, Senegal looks like one of the sides to beat. The Lions of Teranga have been especially good in defence in recent months, and we fancy they will be able to shut out a Cameroon side that were far from impressive in their opening match of the competition.
