The big question everyone is asking ahead of this game is whether Nigeria can topple their African rivals and claim a place in the U20 World Cup quarter-finals.
Nigeria kicked off their campaign in style following a comprehensive 4-0 win over Qatar. However, a 2-0 loss at the hands of USA and a 1-1 draw with group leaders Ukraine saw Nigeria drop to third in the group.
Thankfully for Paul Aigbogun’s men, his side were still able to claim a place in the last-16 stage after ranking as the second best, third-placed side in the competition. Complicated, I know.
Nevertheless, it is clear that Nigeria have something about them and they are very much capable of causing a surprise.
Senegal qualified to this next round after topping group A. Two straight wins followed by a draw with the hosts, saw Senegal end their group stage with seven points, five goals scored and none conceded.
Their solid defence could be the difference maker in this game with many expecting one goal to separate both teams.
The recommendation in this game is to back Senegal in the correct score market. A 1-0 win for the favourites is priced at 5/1.
