The Lions of Teranga cruised past Gambia last time out, winning 3-0. The same cannot be said of their opponents, who only managed a 1-1 draw with Guinea. They need to improve if they are going to make it to the AFCON Round of 16.

The two sides met back in October. A Sadio Mané penalty was enough for Senegal to grab the win. That was just a friendly, though. Expect this to be a feistier affair. 

The Indomitable Lions will expect to have Andre Onana back between the sticks after he featured for Man Utd last weekend. They are, however, sweating on the fitness of skipper Vincent Aboubakar, who picked up an injury in training. Pape Matar Sarr remains a fitness doubt for Senegal.

This is a huge match for both teams and there will be a wealth of talent on display. Which lions will roar the loudest? There's more than pride at stake. Read on for where to get Senegal vs Cameroon live streams – and watch AFCON 2023 games for free – where you are.

Don't worry — you can watch it via a VPN instead, and we'll show you how to do that below. Our favorite VPN service right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on lots of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, but you'll find others in our best VPN services list.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. or U.K.and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select South Africa from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to SABC Plus or another service and watch the game.
