The first quarter-final of the African Cup of Nations (CAN) opposes, Saturday, January 29, the surprising Gambia to the host country, Cameroon, at 5 p.m. in Douala.

Winner of the Comoros in the round of 16 at the end of a match bereaved by a deadly crowd movement, Cameroon are largely favorites.

The Indomitable Lions will still have to be wary of the Scorpions, who are playing without complexes for their first final phase of the African Cup, led by the football backpacker, the Belgian coach Tom Saintfiet.

The other quarter-final of the day will oppose Burkina Faso to Tunisia, in Garoua (8 p.m.).

Follow the meeting on our liveblog from 4:45
