Senegal vs Cape Verde Prediction and Betting Tips (25.01.2022)

Command Analysis

Senegal

Senegalare the two-time AFCON silver medalists. They also participated in the final stage of the FIFA World Cup twice and have a good chance of making the upcoming World Cup in Qatar, too - the Lions of Teranga finished the previous round of qualification on top of their group, beating Togo, Namibia and Congo.

Aliou Cissé's charges are unbeaten at the current tournament. However, the Lions of Teranga scored only one goal in their three group matches - they defeated Zimbabwe (1:0) and recorded goalless draws against Guinea (0:0) and Malawi (0:0).

Cape Verde

Cape Verde will play in the knockout stages for the second time in their third appearance in the competition. In the 2022 World Cup qualifiers,Bubista's men couldn't not make it to the playoffs - Nigeria beat them by two points.

At the group stage of the Africa Cups of Nations, the Blue Sharks recorded a victory over Ethiopia (1:0), lost to Burkina Faso (0:1) and drew with Cameroon (1:1), which allowed them to secure qualification as one of the highest-ranked third-placed teams.
