Preview
Senegal begin their World Cup 2022 Qualification CAF 2nd Round group stage set of matches against Togo on Wednesday.
The Senegal side head into this one on the back of a 5-4 penalty shoot out loss in the final of the COSAFA Cup against South Africa in Mid-July.
N’Diaye missed the crucial spot-kick as the Senegal side missed their chance to pick up their maiden COSAFA Trophy.

On the other hand, Togo was in action last in a friendly match in early June when they lost 1-0 to Gambia.
Along with these 2 sides, Congo and Namibia are part of the Group H.
Hence, a winning start to the campaign is necessary as it sets the momentum for the qualification campaign.

Senegal is the better team at the moment due to their in-form side, who have four of their last five matches.

We expect a comfortable win for the home side.
