Match details:

FIFA World Cup
Senegal vs Netherlands
Venue: Al-Thumama Stadium, Al-Thumama, Qatar
Date: 21st November 2022
Time: 9:30 pm IST

Preview:

Senegal and Netherlands will face each other in the FIFA World Cup 2022 at Al-Thumama Stadium, Al-Thumama in the Round 1 match. Senegal have done an incredible job in the Africa Cup of Nations and have become the champions this year. They played two friendly matches this month, having won the first match while drawing the other one. They have to play without their star player Sadio Mane and it will be an uphill task for them to qualify for the upcoming stages.

On the other hand, the Netherlands must be high on confidence as they are undefeated in the last 15 matches across all competitions. They played two matches in September this year and won both against Poland and Belgium. They are looking in sympathetic touch and are holding an edge here.

Top picks:

Steven Bergwijn: Bergwijn is a versatile player and can play at any position in the front line. He is naturally a right-footed player but can take shots equally effectively with his left foot. For his country in the Nations League, he has recorded 2 goals in six matches. In the Dutch league Eredivisie, he has recorded 8 goals in 14 matches this season and will be looking to repeat the same action for his country.

Ismaila Sarr: Ismaila is a quick, hard-working, and energetic player with powerful running and good movement into the box. He has a total of 6 goals and 4 assists in 17 Championship matches this season. In his match against Cardiff City, he recorded a goal recently.

Captain and vice-captain options:
