Mexico - Cameroon (+ 0.25) 
Premiere without surprises does not exist and I think from all the games of these days, this fight gathers all the stuff to see a good surprise. It seems that the companies have taken over the project, since the returns to the victory of Mexico are over 2.10.
What factors do Mexico do in this showdown? Certainly the quality of the Latin American players, who are much more artisan than Cameroon's very artistic Africans. Other elements that can be attributed to Mexican favorites are:
- Brazil. The fight is on Latin American territory, so Mexico should have a head start because of conditions and the ability to adapt to them. But do not be ridiculed, and in Africa, the same heat and humidity we have in Cameroon have learned to play in these conditions. I always remember African teams going for friendly in Latin America, getting odds near 1.40-1.60 for the home team and always making the funeral. Colombia's last example was 2-2 with Senegal's almost second team.
- The referees. The race runs a trio from Colombia and it would not be unnatural in Brazil to give a boost to their continent team. But here we are talking about Cameroon, who has learned to play in the African seats, where the referee is forced with the pistol on the temple to favor the home team. And yet Cameroon can escape such situations.
- The world. It is expected that the Mexicans will be more on the field. Logically, next to their country they play. But his national Mexico has shown in recent years that the world has more stress than the team gives, rather than boosting victory. If there is not a quick goal, the pressure will be great for the Mexicans and surely the world out of favor will be an extra strain on the team.
If we put the above aside, there is not so much difference between the two teams. Mexico was generally in difficulty in the qualifying process. The goal was not easy to play and needed the barrage with New Zealand to reach the final stage. The friends who gave disappointment to Bosnia and Portugal, which were the most serious tests.
Cameroon, through a climate of intense controversy, eventually qualified in the final phase much easier than what experts and supporters expected. Almost for fun. Eto'o has finally found a worthy teammate to attack the face of Choupo Moting, and there is always the rich Wembo. Friendly, the Africans made the 2-2 with Germany the only friendly claims they made.
I think the game has a lot of X but I do not think it is unlikely that Cameroon will find a counterattack that will bring 0-1 and the fairs to the corner with the curious dances and invocations to their gods. I think there is value in + 0.25 and it's worth a small bet.
