Match Preview
After opening their 2018 World Cup (WC) Group H campaigns with victories, Japan and Senegal will look to secure qualification for the knockout stages when they clash on Sunday in Ekaterinburg. |
Japan stunned ten-man Colombia 2-1 with goals by Shinji Kagawa and Yuya Osako. Playing in a new style and formation (4-2-3-1) compared to the 2014 WC, the ‘Blue Samurai’ banked on endurance to kick-start with a win, after having lost three in five pre-WC friendlies (W1, D1, L3). |
Japan haven’t had a great time against African teams in recent friendlies (D1, L1), but they have won two of three (W2, L1) in previous WC finals. For Senegal, this will be their first-ever WC finals encounter against an Asian opponent. |
Senegal enjoyed the rub of the green against Poland, as an own goal from Thiago Cionek and a controversial second from M’Baye Niang gave them a 2-1 win. With a disciplined and compact performance, Senegal made a mockery of their pre-tournament form that saw them win just once in five friendlies (W1, D3, L1). |
This is a huge game for both teams as a win would all but seal their progression, outshining the group favourites. |
Players to watch: Osako will once again lead the attack for Japan, while the much-travelled Niang will do the running for Senegal. |
Stat attack: Japan have won only one of their last five matches in WC finals (W1, D1, L3). |
Japan have scored more than one goal in just two of their last 12 matches in WC finals. |
Only once in their history of 19 matches in WC finals have Japan won two matches in a row. |
Senegal have scored at least two goals in seven of their last ten competitive matches. |
Senegal have lost only one of their six matches at WC finals (W3, D2, L1), four of which have seen both sides score. |
