Senegal will wrap up their Group H activity in the 2022 World Cup qualification with a home game against Congo on Sunday. Their mission here is achieved as they are sure to finish top of the group and advance to the next stage. They have 13 points, atop the group, while visiting Congo are bottom with three points. Senegal could be without their skipper Sadio Mane after he limped off in the 28th minute of their 1-1 draw with Togo but with the job done, the Liverpool man won’t be missed. Senegal are firm favorites here, unbeaten in 23 World Cup qualification matches at home. They are prolific in attack, going to this game having scored in nine of their last 10 matches, but they haven’t kept a lot of clean sheets. In the last 10 matches, they have just three clean sheets and both teams have scored in seven of the 10 matches. Even in World Cup qualification, there hasn’t been a big variation – half of the last 10 home matches have seen both teams score.

Congo go to their final group game searching for their first win of these qualifiers. Their run in Group H actually extends a poor run they’ve had in World Cup qualification – they are winless in 11 straight. They also haven’t done impressively in defence in their World Cup qualification matches, having no clean sheet to show in the last 15. The visitors go to this game having managed just two wins in their last 10 matches while both teams have scored in their last five matches. They have failed to score in just one of their last five away matches in World Cup qualification.
