Senegal vs Gambia – Match Preview and Prediction

Senegal vs Gambia – Senegal, the reigning champions, will play their opening AFCON match at Charles Konan Banny Stadium against Gambia in Group C. With Cameroon and Guinea also in the group, Senegal will want to get off to a solid start.

Senegal wants to see more of the same this term as they did last, winning the title after defeating Egypt. In the meantime, Gambia would anticipate another thrilling competition, similar to AFCON 2021, where they advanced to the quarterfinals before losing to Cameroon.

A significant number of Senegal’s players, including Edouard Mendy, Kalidou Koulibaly, Pape Sarr, Idrissa Gana Gueye, Cheikhou Kouyaté, Ismaila Sarr, Iliman Ndiaye, Nicolas Jackson, and Sadio Mané, will be available for selection. Assan Ceesay and Omar Colley would be the people to look at in the Gambia.

Who will prevail in the encounter between Gambia and Senegal?

Senegal has won twice and drawn the other two of the previous four meetings between the two sides.
With so many talented players, Senegal has been playing well for a while and is a serious contender for the championship.

Despite just suffering two losses in 2023, the Lions of Teranga also have a strong winning percentage. Furthermore, they have a strong record versus the Gambia, a country that is placed 106 spots below them.

Gambia had a terrible record prior to entering the competition, which their subpar defense made even worse.

Senegal vs Gambia – Betting Analysis

This match should result in goals. Senegal should use a potent offensive lineup, including Sadio Mané, Nicolas Jackson, and Ismaila Sarr, among others, to establish early control in the group because they will be playing against a team that has been giving up goals frequently lately.

It appears that a high-scoring match is anticipated this time around. Given Senegal’s squad’s capabilities and a string of impressive results, betting on them to win by a margin of two goals or more at 2.19 odds seems reasonable.

The second tip, which is over 2.5 goals at 2.20 odds, looks pretty good. Considering Senegal’s offensive ability and the recent goal participation in Gambia’s matches,.
