Senegal have endured mixed results in their recent outings. In their last six matches, they have managed just three victories to go with two defeats and a draw. The loss of Sadio Mane had a big effect on the nation’s fortunes in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. England embarrassed them in the round of 16 stage beating them 3-0. Senegal, who enjoyed a very successful 2022, now need to bounce back in style at the African Nations Championship.
Uganda, too have been way too inconsistent in their latest fixtures. They have earned just a couple of victories along with two defeats and two draws in their last six games. Uganda had to content themselves with just a draw against DR Congo on matchday one. Now, however, they need to go all out for the win or else proceedings could prove to be very difficult come matchday three. However, Senegal poses a great threat for them.
With the fate of knockout qualification lying greatly on this fixture, it is expected that both the coaches will look to name their best and their strongest XIs with the aim to earn that all important three points.
