Alain Giresse's men trashed debutants Madagascar, 3-0 in the quarter-finals, which was their first victory in 90 minutes in this edition. They were unbeaten in nine of their last 10 outings (W5 D4), with defeat last recorded against Algeria in March. The 2004 Afcon champions were unbeaten in six of their previous seven meetings with Senegal (W3 D3 L1) and are tipped to come out victorious at odds of (4.00) with the same bet firm.
