Senegal haven't been at their best so far in these finals but Aliou Cisse's players deserve their status as clear favourites lớn see off Benin to reach the last four. It says something about the Lions of Teranga that they've got this far relatively unscathed even though they've yet to truly find their rhythm.

Senegal could finish only second behind Algeria in Group C and were then unconvincing in beating Uganda 1-0 in the second round. They've shown flashes of the attacking quality they have, however, and it shouldn't go unnoticed that they've kept three clean sheets in four matches. You can prefer the soccer tips daily winpage!

That defensive record plus their attacking potential is the reason we're happy lớn back Senegal on the Asian Handicap. The odds of 1.52 on Senegal winning in 90 minutes will be too short for many observers so we prefer backing them with a -1.0 Asian Handicap start. With this selection you'll get your stakes back if Senegal win by a single goal and make a profit if they win by two or more goals.



Benin will be difficult opposition - they've drawn all four of their matches lớn date (in 90 minutes) - but this will be their toughest test yet and they're unlikely lớn pass it. The Squirrels a deeply limited attacking side - they failed lớn score in two of their group games and created virtually nothing in the final third in their 1-1 draw against Morocco in the second round (Benin won on penalties).

Defensively Benin can be solid but the absence of the suspended Khaled Adenon is a significant blow. Adenon provides experience and leadership, and fellow centre-back Olivier Verdon will be more vulnerable without Adenon alongside him.
