Senegal have endured way too inconsistent results in their recent matches. They have managed four victories in their last six games accompanied by two defeats. The World Cup in Qatar was a disappointing one for Senegal who dearly missed the presence of Sadio Mane. However, reaching the quarter finals of African Nations Championship indicates that the nation is well on their course to rise back and will be fancying their chances of lifting the trophy.
Mauritania will be content with their form and results in recent outings. In their last six fixtures, they have managed three victories to go with two draws and a defeat. The nation had a tough task in the group stages paired in a three team group with only qualification position. However, they rose through all the challenges with a victory over Mali and a draw with Angola. Senegal poses a greater threat but Mauritania will be willing to embrace it and advance further.
With this being the beginning of the knockout stages of the competition, both the coaches will be looking to name their respective strongest XIs to ensure qualification to the next round.
