Tunisia vs Cameroon October 13, 2013

The winner of the two-legged playoffs earn a spot in next year’s World Cup in Brazil. Cameroon entered the match with a great deal of questions, but one was recently answered by striker Samuel Eto’o. The Chelsea striker was uncertain about his future with the national side but has pledged to help Cameroon make the World Cup.

Cameroon talisman Samuel Eto'o is available for their World Cup qualifying play-off with Tunisia after rescinding his international retirement.

The four-time African Player of the Year hinted last month that he would no longer be available for the national team after the qualification group stages.

However, Chelsea striker Eto'o has now had a change of heart and is set to lead the Cameroon line in the first leg of the crucial tie in Rades on Sunday.

Cameroon have the better head-to-head record between the countries with six wins in the nine previous meetings, and Tunisia's only win came a decade ago in an international friendly in Tunis.

They have not met since January 2010, when they battled out a 2-2 draw during the group stages of the Africa Cup of Nations.

Tunisia were given a reprieve in qualifying after Cape Verde were docked three points for fielding an ineligible player during their clash.
