Qatar Preview : 0 points – 4th place
The host team of this World Cup began its participation with a negative record. The team coached by Spaniard Félix Sánchez Bas lost the opening match against Ecuador 2-0, becoming the first host team to lose in the opening match of the tournament. From the opening minutes of the match, the Qataris were cornered by an Ecuadorian side determined to press.
In the 4th minute, a disallowed goal by the visitors stifled the South American hopes. However, Enner Valencia revived the flame with a goal in the 14th minute. Qatar did not come close to scoring and did not create any danger beyond one chance near the end of the match.
For this new game, Qatar is expected to draw strength from its people and repeat its fantastic performance in the last official tournament it played, the Arab Nations Cup, where it was crowned as champions.
Possible lineup (5-3-2): Saad Al-Sheeb, Bassam Al-Rawi, Boulaem Khoukhi, Abdelkarim Hassan, Pedro Miguel, Homam Ahmed, Karim Boudiaf, Abdulaziz Hatem, Hasan Al-Haydos, Almoez Ali and Akram Afif.
Senegal Preview : 0 points – 3rd place
Senegal also failed to win in its World Cup debut. The Africans had a difficult but close match against the Netherlands, loosing by a score of 2-0 to the Europeans. The Senegalese possession percentage during the match was 46%. In addition, the African side registered 14 shots. Cody Gakpo and Davy Klaassen scored for the Oranges in the 84th minute and 90+8th minute respectively.
Despite the unfortunate result, Aliou Cissé’s team showed a great physical form and high soccer level, although they did not have the number of names and figures of their rivals. The sensation at the end of the match was that Senegal deserved more.
For this new match between Qatar vs Senegal, the lions will have to adjust the aerial defense and anticipation in deep plays, which is how the goals came in the last match.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Edouard Mendy, Youssouf Sabaly, Kalidou Koulibaly, Pape Cissé, Abdou Diallo, Idrissa Gueye, Nampalys Mendy and Cheikhou Kouyaté, Ismaila Sarr, Boulaye Dia, Krépin Diatta.
JefeBet Prediction
For this first Group A match between Qatar vs Senegal, we believe it will be the Africans who will take the victory. Neither of the two teams won on the first day, however, Senegal showed great synergy and fought at the same level of the Netherlands, which is a great team.
However, they should not be overconfident, as Qatar has the support of its people, something that should not be ignored.
Prediction: Senegal wins 1-0.
