I was very unimpressed with the way the Guineans played against an inexperienced Malawi.

I still think they will be very strong for the Teranga Lions. These are two West African teams that know each other very well.

I think I will go for a draw.

Senegal v Guinea – Who will make it through?


Senegal Teranga Lions and Guinea Syli Nationale lock horns in Group B Matchday 2 of the ongoing TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations, Cameroon 2021.
The Western Africa Derby will be decisive, as the winner will pave way to the Round of 16, after both sides secured identical 1-0 victories in their opening matches over Zimbabwe and Malawi respectively.

Match: Senegal vs Guinea


Senegal – To prove a point

After waiting for so late to win their opener against Zimbabwe, the Teranga Lions will hope for another win to prove their tag as one of the tournament favorites.

History on their side, as they won the previous two AFCON encounters against neighbors Guinea, but Aliou Cisse knows well history means nothing in such tournaments.

What they said

Aliou Cisse (Coach, Senegal)

"When Senegal play Guinea its always an exciting match, a Derby to watch. Our aim is to win every game, but we have to remember they are equally very strong side. I have always told our players we have no small teams in the competition.

"I played against Guinea Coach Kaba Diawara 24 years ago and we know each other well. However, on the pitch things will be different as we both want to win.,

Joseph Lopy (Player, Senegal)

"It will be a tough Derby as we know each other well. Our aim is to get the three points and build from the win against Zimbabwe. We have prepared well, and we are very motivated for the crucial match.

Guinea – Time for more

The win over Malawi was a huge morale boaster for Kaba Diawara’s side, and they know that another one over favorites enegal would mean nothing but a place in the next round, and a message that Syli Nationale is here for business.

Diawara will once again rely on his leader Naby Keita, the first game’s winner scorer Issiaga Sylla and striker Mohamed Bayo to threaten Senegal’s defence.

What they said

Kaba Diawara (Coacj, Guinea)

"We are excited to be playing against Senegal in a Derby. Senegal is a big team, and we don't expect an easy game, but we know nothing is impossible. We are determined to get three points, and I have urged the players to be vigilant as we want to avoid the mistakes we did against Malawi."

Mohamed Bayo (Forward, Guinea)

"It is a very important game and as players we know that. We know each other as players, but on the pitch, we want to give 100 percent and make our fans happy. Our opponents are a very good and established side.”

Sedio Mane needs to proof himself today

Senegal and Guinea are meeting for the third time at the Africa Cup of Nations, with Senegal winning their first two encounters: 2-1 in the 1994 group stages and 3-2 in the quarter-finals of the 2006 tournament. In both matches, Guinea opened the scoring before eventually finishing as the losing side.

● Senegal have won five of their last seven group stage games in the Africa Cup of Nations (D1 L1), keeping clean sheets in all five victories.

● Guinea will be looking to win their opening two matches at a single edition of the Africa Cup of Nations for just the second time, last doing so in 2006.

● Sadio Mané has been directly involved in five of Senegal’s last six goals in the Africa Cup of Nations (four goals, one assist). Indeed, since his debut in the competition in January 2015, Mané has been directly involved in more goals at the Africa Cup of Nations than any other Senegal player (six goals, one assist).

● Guinea head-coach Kaba Diawara scored two goals in the Africa Cup of Nations as a player – one of these came the last time Guinea and Senegal met in the tournament, in the quarter-finals of the 2006 edition.
