FIFA World Cup -- Qatar vs Senegal Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

Friday's pivotal Group A match between Senegal and World Cup hosts Qatar will take place at the Al Thumama Stadium.

 

Qatar

Qatar utterly failed in their match against Ecuador on Sunday, the tournament's opening match, losing 2-0 to the South American team. Being defeated in their opening match makes Qatar the first host nation in World Cup history.

 

Senegal

 

Senegal lost 0-2 to Netherlands in he opening game. Mane was disqualified from the competition just hours before the opening ceremony. They only gave up two goals on their way to winning the Africa Cup of Nations at the beginning of the year, and they allowed just three goals in their final six games before this tournament.

 

Prediction

Senegal hopes that controlling possession and generating enough opportunities would give them the advantage because they have recently struggled to find their scoring touch.

 

 

Pick: Senegal win
