Senegal vs Benin – Senegal will begin World Cup qualification against Benin in their Africa Cup of Nations opener. The Lions of Teranga won the Africa Cup of Nations and made it to the World Cup finals, so they’re in high spirits ahead of Benin’s arrival. Sadio Mane, who played for Liverpool in the Champions League final, will be a key home player. The Squirrels finished one point behind group leader D.R. Congo and missed the championship in Qatar. Senegal, a domestic powerhouse, is our pick.
Senegal hopes to continue their strong start at the Africa Cup of Nations. Senegal were second favorites after beating Uganda in the last 16. Egypt’s tremendous assortment of talent might take them all the way to the championship after a loss in the second round. Can they beat Benin and compete?
Senegal vs Benin – Betting Analysis
Without Egypt, Senegal is the most intriguing team left in the quarterfinals. Two years ago, they lost in the quarterfinals to eventual winner Cameroon, but Cameroon is also gone. Senegal has a chance if they continue their recent form, although their 1-0 loss to Algeria in the group stage could be a concern.
The tournament favorites will face strong competition, but not this. Benin hasn’t won at this event, but they drew 1-1 with Morocco. Benin won on penalties, but can they keep it close? They drew all three of their group games and still qualified as a third-place team, but those results demonstrate they’re restricted.
Aliou Cisse’s Senegal had a stunning 2022. They won their first Africa Cup of Nations by beating Egypt on penalties at the beginning of the year and again in March’s 2022 FIFA World Cup playoffs. They face Benin, who drew 1-1 with Togo last month. The visitors have lost one of their last five matches and will try to frustrate the African champions. Senegal are favorites, especially at home, but it should be low-scoring.
