Senegal will invite Burundi to Stade Me Abdoulaye Wade in their final group-stage match of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers on Tuesday. The hosts have already booked their spot in the main event and will look to conclude the group-stage campaign on a winning note. Les Hirondelles need to avoid a loss or they could finish at the bottom of the Group L table.
Lions de la Téranga played Burkina Faso last week and registered a 1-0 away win. Substitute Habib Diarra scored the match-winner in the 83rd minute, with Pape Gueye picking up the assist.
The visitors arrested their losing streak after three games last week as they played out a goalless draw against Malawi. They failed to score for the second match on the trot and will look to return to goalscoring ways.
