Senegal vs Burundi Predictions


Senegal are under no pressure so should be playing with some freedom at home. Considering that they’ve kept four clean sheets in a row, I fancy Senegal to win this to nil and cover the -2 handicap.

  • Senegal have won their last 4 matches.
  • Senegal have won all 3 matches against Burundi.
  • Senegal have won their last 4 matches to nil.
  • Burundi have failed to score in 3 of their last 4 matches.

Head to Head


Senegal have won all three matches against Burundi, conceding only one goal. They met earlier this year where Senegal won 1-0 away from home.

Senegal Form


Senegal have been solid throughout Group L in AFCON qualifying. They have won four and drawn one of their five matches. 

With qualification already secured, will be looking to play with a bit more freedom on home soil. Defensively, Senegal have been outstanding with only one goal conceded in the group stage.

That came in the opener when Senegal drew 1-1 at home to Burkina Faso. It was followed by a 4-0 thrashing of Malawi at home before another 1-0 away win against the same opponents.

Last week, Senegal traveled to Burkina Faso and won 1-0 thanks to an 83rd minute winner by Mouhamadou Diarra.

We could see a few fringe players get a run as new combinations are tested with qualification secured. However, regardless, the hosts will put out a strong side.

Burundi Form


Burundi have nothing other than pride to play for on Tuesday against Senegal. They have four points from five matches and can no longer qualify for AFCON.

The group stage started well enough for Burundi as they beat Malawi 3-2 away from home. They then lost 1-0 to Senegal at home and 4-1 in Burkina Faso. A few days later, Burundi lost 2-0 at home to the same opposition.

Last week, Burundi drew 0-0 at home to Malawi. It was a game they would have fancied winning after beating the Malawians away earlier in the campaign.

Burundi will want to end off the campaign with a big result but away from home against Senegal will be tough. I don’t expect many changes from the Burundi side that featured last week.

Verdict

Senegal are backed to win and cover the -2 handicap.
