Belgium vs Senegal Prediction World Cup Today

Senegal Moneyline (+260)

Senegal is a side that's impressed me in this tourney, and I think this match is going to be more even than the market has it, leading me to back Senegal's moneyline odds.

Drawn into a difficult group alongside France and Norway, Senegal mustered just three points via a win over Iraq but mostly gave France (3-1 loss) and Norway (3-2 loss) competitive matches and showed they can generate chances versus quality opposition.

Belgium had a much easier group but wasn't very good -- especially in attack -- outside of a much-needed 5-1 win over New Zealand in Matchday 3, a victory that came after underwhelming draws against Egypt (1-1) and Iran (0-0).

Despite a talented roster, Belgium just haven't looked all that dangerous going forward other than the New Zealand match, and New Zealand is poor defensively, allowing multiple goals in all of their matches. Senegal has shown it can score goals, and I think they have the defensive ability to frustrate Belgium.

If you want to play it safer, you can take Senegal to qualify for the next round at +136 odds, a wager that covers extra time and penalties.
