    2021 Africa Cup of Nations final: Best bets for Sunday's Senegal vs. Egypt showdown from esteemed soccer insider

    Sports betting insider Jon Eimer has locked in his top selections for the AFCON championship matchup in Yaounde, Cameroon.

    Egypt and Senegal will square off on Sunday in the final of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, with the Egyptians trying to add another to their record seven continental titles. Senegal has never won the AFCON title but was the runner-up in 2019, losing 1-0 to Algeria in the final. 

    Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. ET at Olembe Stadium in Yaounde, Cameroon. Caesars Sportsbook lists Senegal as the +118 favorite (risk $100 to win $118) on the 90-minute money line in its latest Senegal vs. Egypt odds, with Egypt the +330 underdog. A draw is priced at +170 and the Over-Under for total goals scored is set at 1.5. (For coverage of other soccer matches, including 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifying, click here).

    Before locking in your Egypt vs. Senegal picks or 2021 Africa Cup of Nations predictions, you HAVE TO see what sports gambling expert John Eimer has to say. 

    Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, Eimer has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more. The Indiana-based handicapper compiled a winning record of 260-133-1 with over 90 units of profit for his community on various platforms over a recent two-month stretch.

    Eimer knows Senegal has a dangerous attack, and that showed in the 3-1 semifinal win against Burkina Faso. The game was scoreless until Abdou Diallo scored in the 70th minute. The Lions scored two more in the remaining 20 minutes, with Bamba Dieng and Sadio Mane finishing it off. Mane is the catalyst, and he has three goals and seven shots on target in the six AFCON matches. The team also is strong on the back end, with Chelsea's Edouard Mendy, the 2021 FIFA Goalkeeper of the Year, holding down the net.

    The expert also has taken into account that Egypt has the tournament's most electric player and just knocked off host Cameroon on penalties. Mohamed Salah is the top scorer in the English Premier League with 16 goals and has nine assists (second). He has scored just twice in this tournament, and Egypt has four goals, but it has conceded just twice in six games. The Pharaohs play a physical game that could slow down the Senegalese, and goalkeeper Mohamed El-Shenawy has a 93.8 save percentage at AFCON. 

    Eimer has scrutinized the Senegal vs. Egypt 2021 Africa Cup of Nations matchup and locked in his best bets. We can tell you he's leaning Under on the goal total and provides two CONFIDENT best bets, including one on the side. He also offers a full breakdown of the match, and you ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.
