Senegal is the strongest team in Africa at the moment. The Lions played their last games in August and September 2022: two official games in the African Cup qualifiers against Guinea and two friendly matches against Bolivia and Iran. Against Guinea, Senegal won the encounter with great difficulty; the Bolivians were 2:0 stronger, with Iran they drew 1:1. In general, the results are not bad, but it is worth mentioning the fact that Senegal's leader and the team's main star, Sadio Mane, will not be able to play against the Netherlands.
Netherlands
The Netherlands has been one of the most consistent teams in Europe over the past year. The British and French failed in the 2022/23 Nations League, the Spanish and Portuguese beat each other in the same fixture, the Belgians lost to the Dutch, and Italy missed a World Cup final. On the other hand, the Oranje squad looked decent, both in the World Cup qualifiers and in the 2022/23 Nations League. Another thing is that the Netherlands' current team is not that great. However, it is not named that makes the Dutch team strong in the first place, but team play that makes the group a star. From the last ten meetings, the Dutch team has won 7 times with three draws.
Expert Betting Tips
Without Mane and Depay, the attacking potential of both teams is noticeably reduced, which will probably lead to a decrease in performance. The first leg of the World Cup should not be an elite contest. The Netherlands is, on paper, noticeably stronger and has a better chance of winning the title. However, Senegal is an experienced team - they're the strongest team in Africa and have a goal of making the playoffs, so there's no guarantee of an easy life for the Oranje. We expect a hard-fought encounter in which Senegal will clinch a victory.
