6. Senegal

The Teranga Lions quite possibly possess Africa’s fiercest strikeforce. Papiss Cisse, Mame Biram Diouf, Demba Ba, Dame N’Doye are but a few names with the ability to trouble Africa’s most stringent defences. It is now up to Alain Giresse to unlock an apt formula, after his strikers were twice held by a resolute Tunisian defence. Senegal’s most recent loss in Tunisia leaves them in a precarious situation as they’ll need to hold off a rejuvenated Egyptian side that has picked up six points in their two October matches.
