Preview

Once hosts Egypt were eliminated from the competition by South Africa in the round of 16, Senegal were installed as favourites to win the AFCON.

In Mane, the Lions of Teranga hold one of world football's most prized forwards, and he should be central to any success achieved in the latter stages by his country.

However, Mane is still trying to find his best form. The 27-year-old has missed two penalties in the competition, but three goals from the winger have helped Senegal into the last four.

Tunisia are former AFCON winners, but their advancement and success in 2019 has surprised fans. The 2004 champions failed to win a game in Group E, but three draws was enough to see them into the knockouts.

Progress in the last 16 against Ghana came after a 1-1 draw and penalty shootout, meaning the team's 3-0 success over Madagascar in the quarter-finals was their first win in normal time.

Madagascar had been impressive, and Tunisia's second-half goals came out of the blue. Wahbi Khazri was influential for the Eagles of Carthage in the match, and the creative force will need to repeat his performance against Mane and Co.

Senegal have lacked a cutting edge in front of goal the knockout stages, but the attacking threat they need is present in their starting XI.

If Mane suddenly hits top form, Tunisia will not be able to cope with his movement in the penalty box, and Senegal should advance to the final.
