Brothers, Norway are taking on Senegal, and the bookmakers have opened with the home side at -0.25. This one isn’t an easy bite, but tonight I still want to back Norway’s attacking star and take a shot.
As long as Norway’s midfield can deliver quality passes, that monster up front can finish the job in one or two touches. And with them playing at home today, they’ll definitely want to put pressure on Senegal from the start. Senegal are a long-established African powerhouse — strong physically and quick on the break — but their away defense has been known to switch off at times lately, especially when dealing with aerial balls. Against Norway’s direct long-ball game, they could be under real pressure. That said, brothers, you still have to watch out: aside from that attacking ace, Norway’s overall defense is actually pretty shaky. If Senegal nick a counterattack, a draw that turns into a half-loss on the handicap happens all the time. There’s no sure thing in football. For this match, I personally lean toward the home side -0.25. A small stake for a bit of fun, and you guys can make your own call!
