Cameroon and Egypt go head-to-head in the biggest match of the Africa Cup of Nations so far.

Hosts Cameroon will be determined to reach the final on home soil. They will be backed by legions of fans in the stands.

However, Liverpool megastar Mohamed Salah will be set on spoiling the party as he aims to drag Egypt to their first trophy since 2010.

Egypt are the most successful team in AFCON history with seven titles to their name. They failed to add to their tally in 2017 when they lost the final to Cameroon.

The host nation have enjoyed fairly smooth sailing through the rounds so far and head into this one as marginal favourites.

RadioTimes.com has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Cameroon v Egypt on TV and online.

Our prediction: Cameroon v Egypt

Cameroon have looked competent without excelling in the AFCON so far. They face their toughest challenge here.

Salah had failed to ignite in the competition until scoring and recording an assist in the last encounter with Morocco.

He will need a similar performance here, as without him Egypt have looked tepid at best. Cameroon are the favourites.

Our prediction: Cameroon 1-0 Egypt (9/2 at bet365)
