Wednesday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me continue to focus on the World Cup, and I’ve highlighted another goals-based selection.
⚽️ Belgium vs Senegal
🏆 World Cup
⏰ Wednesday 1 July, 21:00
Belgium and Senegal meet in Seattle, Washington, on Wednesday evening in an intriguing Round of 32 tie.
Belgium endured a sluggish start to their World Cup campaign, as they were held to draws with Egypt (1-1) and Iran (0-0) in their opening two matches in Group G.
However, Rudi Garcia’s men clicked into gear in their final group match as they thrashed New Zealand 5-1, a result that saw them finish top of the group, above Egypt on goal difference.
Senegal made an even worse start to the tournament than their European counterparts, as they suffered entertaining defeats to current favourites France (3-1) and Norway (3-2).
However, Pape Thiaw’s men managed to sneak into the knockout stages as one of the best third-placed sides, as they thrashed Iraq 5-0 in their final match in Group I.

Bet of the Day
Given that both of these are far stronger going forward than they are defensively, I’m expecting quite an attacking and open encounter in Seattle on Wednesday evening.
Senegal’s three matches in Group I yielded an impressive 14 goals, with Both Teams to Score landing in two of them, only failing to do so in their rout against Iraq.
Both Teams to Score landed in two of Belgium’s three group stage clashes, and I’m backing that trend to continue here.
