Senegal vs Nigeria prediction

The closest Nigeria have come to winning the African Nations Championship was in 2018 when they finished runners-up after losing 4-0 to Morocco in the final. Senegal however, were victorious back in 2023, lifting the trophy after a dramatic penalty shootout win following a 0-0 draw. The Lions of Teranga are expected to be in with a chance of success once again this time around.

When assessing the two squads, Senegal looks like it may have that extra touch of domestic quality, but Nigeria possesses a genuine attacking threat and are not to be underestimated. Whilst backing Senegal has to be favoured, only do so via the safety of the draw no bet market.

Senegal vs Nigeria tip: Senegal draw no bet
