ALG vs SEN Team News

Algeria

• They will most probably play a 4-1-4-1 formation with the coach likely to back Baghdad Bounedjah inspite of him being wasteful in the previous two games and Silimani will also be an option from the bench.
• They will rely on their star player Riyadh Mahrez to come good and be influential in this game.
• Algeria coach Djamel Belmadi could maintain the same team that defeated Nigeria in the semi-finals as Youcef Atal is still out with injury

Senegal

• Kalidou Koulibaly is suspended for the final of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. He is a key player and his absence is a huge blow for Senegal. Salif Sané will likely come into this game.
• Goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is still reeling from injury and therefore it is more than likely that Alfred Gomis will start in goal. M’baye Niang is expected to play in this game despite his poor performance and it is also expected that Ismaila Sarr will start after a good display in the previous game as a substitute.
• Senegal will play a 4-2- 3-1 formation with Niang as the striker supported by Sarr Gueye and Mane.
