Senegal will be looking to secure their ticket for the 2026 World Cup as early as their clash against South Sudan, counting for the 9th round of qualifiers.

This showdown will take place on Friday, October 10 at Juba National Stadium and will be officiated by Cameroonian referee Abdou Abdel Mefire.

The 2021 AFCON champions lead their group with 18 points, holding a two-point advantage over their closest challengers, DR Congo.

To achieve this goal, the "Lions" must first overcome South Sudan, while hoping the "Leopards" slip up against Togo’s "Sparrowhawks."

In the past, Senegal has featured in three World Cup final tournaments, specifically in the 2002, 2018, and 2022 editions.

Their best performance came in 2002, when they reached the quarter-finals before narrowly losing to Turkey.
