Senegal favored to flex on struggling Iraq

Our model backs Senegal at 71% to win, predicting a 2-0 victory in Toronto. The +189 Elo advantage is decisive, underpinned by a stark xG gap of 2.1 to 0.7—Senegal should dominate both the ball and clear chances.

Both teams arrive in poor form, each having lost their opening match. Yet Senegal's superior setup and tempo control (balanced 2.8 xG) suggest they'll convert their dominance into goals while keeping Iraq at arm's length.

Confidence sits at 71%, supported by the Elo gap and shot quality differential. A Senegal clean sheet win is the most likely outcome.
