Burkina Faso vs Senegal Prediction

Our pick for Burkina Faso vs Senegal in African Cup Nations is Under 2.5 goals, with 70% confidence. Recent form: 2 of Burkina Faso's last 5 games went over 2.5 goals (2.8 goals per game in total), against 3 of 5 for Senegal (3.4 per game). Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. At 70%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 1-3. The pick lost.
