The Lions of Teranga have been below par lately, and they’ll continue their AFCON qualifying campaign under a new coach, Pape Thiaw. The reign of Aliou Cisse come to a halt after a successful time today with the Senegal National Team. In this group, Senegal have drawn once and won a game, scoring twice and conceding once. The Lions of Teranga have not lived up to their expectations in recent months, especially in front of goal. Senegal scored just a goal in a game where they created three big chances and fired seven shots at goal against Burundi.
Senegal finished at the top of their group in their previous appearance in this tournament, securing fourteen points from a combined eighteen.
The former African Champions are among the best teams in the continent and head here sky-high in confidence despite failing to defend their title in the previous edition.

Last five games: LWLLL
With back-to-back defeats against Burkina Faso and Burundi, it’s apparent that Malawi won’t make the top two. They have conceded six and scored three times in their last two games. Following their (2-3) home loss against Burundi in their opening game, Malawi suffered a heavy defeat against Burkina Faso on the road.
The guests head here with just a victory against a struggling São Tomé on their ground over their previous seven matches. The Flames have lost twice in this tournament, sitting in fourth place on the log.
Expert Betting Tips
Senegal have won once and drawn once over their previous two meetings against Malawi. The Lions of Teranga have been one of the most consistent teams in the continent over the years. They are blessed with a blend of young and experienced players. However, they have not lived up to their potential lately. Senegal have scored twice in this tournament and have conceded once in games where they created loads of chances. They have a new coach and we expect a more improved display against a Malawi team who have won once over their last seven games.
Senegal are expected to get off to a flying start, and we think they’ll get a halftime victory for 1.66.
This game will produce more than two goals since the visitors' last two games have produced more than eight matches.
We think the hosts will score in both halves for 2.10.
Good luck!
