The Cameroonian first division, MTN Elite One, continued its course this weekend with its eighth matchday. PWD Bamenda hosted Coton Sport of Garoua in their home stadium, a match particularly awaited by supporters. The Bamenda team confirmed its dominance at home by defeating the "Galactiques du Nord" with a score of 2-1.
Since the development of the Bamenda Proximity Stadium, PWD no longer needs to relocate its matches, a considerable asset for the club. President Pascal Abunde and his players seem to feel invincible at home, where they have not conceded any defeats this season.
After a contested defeat against Victoria United, PWD bounced back by beating Stade Renard, marking its first historic match on its new turf. This victory was followed by another success against Gazelle FA, consolidating their position.
The series of home victories continued with a convincing victory against Panthère Sportive du Ndé (2-0), before confirming their supremacy by beating Coton Sport. With this dynamic, AS Fortuna will have to prepare adequately for their trip to Bamenda on the 10th matchday.
Sports analysts agree that playing in front of one's home crowd and in one's own facilities offers a significant advantage. PWD Bamenda is transforming its stadium into an impregnable fortress, which could prove decisive in the title race.
PWD Bamenda's next match is scheduled against AS Fortuna on March 11, 2026. Before that, they will face Canon Yaoundé on March 14, 2026.
