Brazil will lock horns with Senegal at the Emirates Stadium in an international friendly on Saturday. Seleção will take on Tunisia next week, while Lions de la Téranga will conclude their international break with a match against Kenya.
Canarinho have seen conclusive results in their last five games in all competitions, recording three wins. They defeated South Korea in a friendly last month and lost 3-2 to Japan four days later. Estêvão, Rodrygo, and Vinícius Junior scored against South Korea, while Paulo Henrique and Gabriel Martinelli were on the scoresheet against Japan.
The Lions of Teranga head into the match in great form, winning their last four games. They won their two games last month against South Sudan and Mauritania with an aggregate score of 9-0. Sadio Mané scored in both games.
Brazil vs Senegal Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- There is not much history between the two sides, and they have met just twice. The 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) champions are unbeaten in these meetings, recording one win.
- The Lions of Teranga are one of the few national teams to have never lost against Seleção.
- Canarinho have lost two of their last eight friendlies, with one of them registered against the 2021 AFCON winners. They have scored at least two goals in six games in that period.
- Senegal have won their last four games, scoring 14 goals while conceding just twice.
- Lions de la Téranga have suffered three defeats in all competitions in 2025, with one of them registered in a friendly last month.
- Canarinho have scored three goals in two meetings against the 2021 AFCON winners, while conceding five times.
Brazil vs Senegal Prediction
Seleção conceded three goals in a match for the second time in 2025 in their loss to Japan last month. Notably, they are winless in two meetings against the Lions of Teranga and will look to improve upon that record here.
Neymar has been left out of the squad for the two friendlies by Carlo Ancelotti. He has named several Brasileirao players in the squad, which includes Fabinho, Luciano Juba, and Vitor Roque.
Lions de la Téranga have enjoyed a great run of form, winning their last four games while scoring 14 goals. They won their previous meeting against the South American giants, scoring four goals.
Krepin Diatta has missed out on the call for the two friendlies this month due to an injury, while Assane Diao and Habib Diallo are doubts.
Seleção have the advantage in terms of squad quality, and considering their current form, we back them to eke out a narrow win.
Prediction: Brazil 3-2 Senegal
