Goal Scorer:
Senegal
Senegal came out of their first match of the competition with no reported injuries, and based on their performance in the match, it would not be surprising if Cisse opted for an unchanged lineup in this one.
Camara currently leads the top goalscorer standings, having been the only player to score two goals in the first round of matches, which included what will likely be a contender for goal of the tournament.
Nicolas Jackson was brought on in the second half and spurned an excellent opportunity to open his account, while Marseille forward Iliman Ndiaye looked sharp in his 15-minute cameo off the bench.
Senegal possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Jakobs, Koulibaly, Niakhate, Diatta; Gueye, A Diallo, Camara; Mane, H Diallo, Sarr
Cameroon
In search of a greater spark in attack, Cameroon will be hoping that their captain Vincent Aboubakar will be able to return to the frontline after he sustained an injury in training a few days before their opening match.
After being flown in by private jet to the Ivory Coast just 24 hours before their opening match, Song opted to leave out goalkeeper Andre Onana from the staring lineup against Guinea, but the Manchester United shot-stopper should take his place between the sticks on Friday.
Cameroon possible starting lineup:
Onana; Yongwa, Wooh, Moukoudi, Castelletto; Anguissa, Kemen, Ntcham; Koudou, Ekambi, Magri
Prediction: Senegal 1-0 Cameroon
