In the upcoming AFCON semi-final, Senegal and Egypt are set to clash. With Senegal showing a formidable record, remaining unbeaten in 16 of 17 matches, they are strong contenders. Egypt, however, boasts the exceptional talents of Mohamed Salah, which could be decisive. Both teams share a balanced head-to-head history, hinting at a competitive and potentially extended match. Expect a fiercely contested game that might require extra time to decide the finalist.

Senegal vs Egypt Live Stream has just started.


Senegal are deserved favourties in the semi-finals but Egypt keep finding ways to get it done, largely because of Mohamed Salah. The Pharaohs can keep this one tight and take it to extra time. Watch the live event now.

Key Stats - Defeats Rare


  • Senegal are undefeated in 16 of their last 17 matches.
  • Senegal have won 9 of their last 11 matches.
  • Egypt are undefeated in 17 of their last 19 matches.
  • Egypt have won 4 of their last 6 matches.

HTH - No Separation


Senegal and Egypt can’t be separated over 13 matches, both teams with five wins each alongside three draws.

They last met in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, both nations winning 1-0 at home before Senegal prevailed in a penalty shootout.

Senegal Hard to Breach at AFCON


Senegal started at AFCON with a 3-0 victory over Botswana, Nicolas Jackson scoring two goals. They fell behind against DR Congo but fought back, Sadio Mane equalising in a 1-1 draw.

Pape Thiaw’s side ended the group stage with a 3-0 win against Benin, playing the final 20 minutes without Kalidou Koulibaly who was sent off.

The Lions of Teranga conceded an early goal against Sudan in the Round of 16. Pape Gueye scoring twice before half-time and Ibrahim Mbaye came off the bench to wrap up a 3-1 victory.

Senegal had few problems in the quarter-finals, Iliman Ndiaye’s goal enough to earn a 1-0 win over Mali. They played the entire second half against 10 men but still allowed 1.05 xG in the final 45 minutes.
Thiaw was pleased with the victory despite his team scoring once on eight shots on target, saying: “It was not an easy match because we played against a very talented Mali team but we achieved our objective.” 

“If we had been more clinical in front of goal we could have scored more goals, but what is more important today is for us to have qualified for the semi-final.”

Senegal Predicted Line Up & Team News


Senegal (4-3-3) Edouard Mendy; Krepin Diatta, Kalidou Koulibaly, Moussa Niakhate, Ismail Jakobs; Habib Diarra, Idrissa Gueye, Pape Gueye; Iliman Ndiaye, Habib Diallo, Sadio Mane

Iliman Ndiaye started in attack against Mali and rewarded Pape Thiaw with the winning goal.

Nicolas Jackson remained on the bench throughout, Cherif Ndiaye replacing Habib Diallo in the second half.

Salah Leading the Way for Egypt


Egypt have been below their best at the Africa Cup of Nations but keep finding ways to win, largely due to Mohamed Salah. They fell behind against Zimbabwe before Omar Marmoush and Salah scored in a 2-1 victory.

Salah scored to give the Pharaohs the lead against South Africa, holding on for a 1-0 win after Mohamed Hany was sent off before half-time. The group stage ended with a 0-0 draw against Angola, registering just two shots on target and 0.62 xG.

Hossam Hassan’s side were taken to extra time by Benin in the Round of 16. Their superior quality came to the fore, Yasser Ibrahim and Mohamed Salah scoring to secure a 3-1 victory.

Egypt were involved in an entertaining 3-2 win against Ivory Coast in the quarter-finals. Marmoush and Salah scored in the victory as they ended with 29% possession and 6-13 shots.
Salah commented after the game, saying: "It was a perfect win, but as I said before, we are fighting for our country." 

"Hopefully we go through the next game as well, it's against a tough opponent, but we will give our best. We are fighting so hard, you can see the players, nobody is holding anything... We are just carrying on."

Egypt Predicted Line Up & Team News


Egypt (3-4-1-2) Mohamed El Shenawy; Yasser Ibrahim, Hossam Abdelmaguid, Ramy Rabia; Mohamed Hany, Marwan Attia, Hamdy Fathy, Ahmed Abou El Fotouh; Emam Ashour; Mohamed Salah, Omar Marmoush

Mohamed Hamdy suffered an ACL rupture against Benin with Ahmed Abou El Fotouh to continue at left-back.

Mohanad Lasheen suffered a rib contusion against Angola and remains doubtful. Mahmoud Trezeguet might have to settle for another spot on the bench.

Verdict

Egypt have hardly impressed at the Africa Cup of Nations, Mohamed Salah scoring in all four appearances to help the Pharaohs progress.

Senegal failed to put Mali away in the quarter-finals and could find themselves frustrated again, extra time on the cards in Rabat.
