Senegal
Senegal suffered a huge injury blow against Cape Verde last time out when Mane hobbled off the pitch shortly after the hour mark following a brutal collision.
The Liverpool star's participation is currently in doubt and should he fail a late fitness test, his replacement Dieng could come into the starting side after a brilliant cameo against the Blue Sharks.
The Lions of Teranga will also be boosted by the return of Crystal Palace man Cheikhou Kouyate, who is now available for selection after serving his suspension for passing the yellow card threshold in the game against Malawi.
Senegal have been simply outstanding at the defensive end of the pitch so far and we expect to see a similar back four of Bouna Sarr, Kalidou Koulibaly, Abdou Diallo and Saliou Ciss shielding Edouard Mendy between the sticks.
Senegal possible starting lineup:
E Mendy; Sarr, Koulibaly, A Diallo, Ciss; P Gueye, N Mendy, I Gueye; H Diallo, Dieng, Dia
Equatorial Guinea
Meanwhile, Equatorial Guinea will have to make do with the absence of Josete Miranda, who is suspended after picking up a yellow card for the second consecutive game.
With the Getafe man set to miss the game, 24-year-old midfielder Jannick Buyla could return to the fold for his third starting appearance in the competition.
On the injury front, the National Thunder head into the game with a clean bill of health meaning Micha has a full strength squad at his disposal once again.
Equatorial Guinea possible starting lineup:
Owono; Akapo, Coco, Orozco, Ndong; Salvador, Ganet, Machin, Buyla; Siafa, Hanza
Prediction:Senegal 2-0 Equatorial Guinea
