Senegal – Equatorial Guinea betting tip & odds comparison 30.01.2022

The last quarterfinal tie of this riveting AFCON 2021 tournament takes place on Sunday when Senegal lock horns with Equatorial Guinea at the Japoma Stadium in Douala. Senegal haven’t quite lit up the place as many would have expected but they have done just enough to pick up the results they needed to get them here.  

A close contest is on the cards here despite bookies favoring Senegal. Our preview here will take a look at 1xBet and Mybet.africa betting options and prices for our AFCON 2021 betting tips.

SENEGAL

Senegal were widely expected to sweep aside everyone and everything on their path with little ease but it their best laid plans haven’t quite gone according to plan. They only scored one goal in the group stage but that was somehow enough for them to top the group as they ensured they would not be conceding any goals either with a couple of dour goalless stalemates following their late 1-0 last-minute win on opening day.

The Lions of Teranga were then paired with Cape Verde in the round of 16 and their struggles in front of goal continued, only finally managing to score after their opponents had two players dismissed.

Aliou Cissé will be looking for inspiration from his star player, Liverpool’s Sadio Mane to inject some impetus into the attack here. He has been passed fit to play after the concussion he suffered in that 2-0 win over Cape Verde.

EQUATORIAL GUINEA

In a tournament that has had its fair share of upsets, Equatorial Guinea has certainly been part of that story. Despite losing their opening game to Ivory Coast, they went ahead and upset the odds winning their other group games 1-0 against highly fancied opponents, Sierra Leone and defending champions Algeria to finish second in the group.

They still had a lot in store when they faced off with Mali in the round of 16, holding them to a goalless draw before sending them packing after winning the post-match penalties.

Their calling card has also been their defence and it is unlikely that they will turn away from what has brought them so far in this tournament.

SENEGAL VS EQUATORIAL GUINEA PREDICTIONS

Both of these teams have had their backline defence as their bread and butter in this tournament. Senegal are yet to concede a goal coming into this match while Equatorial Guinea have only conceded a single goal. It’s difficult to change course midstream so we can expect a lot of emphasis on that end of the pitch by both teams. As such, like all their games have been, goals are likely to come at a premium. Mybet.africa have the Under 2.5 Goals market priced @ 1.40 and we are backing this as the first of our betting tips today.



Games of this nature tend to be overly physical and that, therefore, brings the cards market into sharp focus here. With Senegal set to dominate possession, Equatorial Guinea might get the wrong end of the stick as pertains to this market. 1xBet app, which offers a fantastic betting experience for its users, has Equatorial Guinea picking at least 3 bookings priced at evens (2.00) and we feel there is value in picking this as our final tip here.
