Brazil vs Senegal: facts, prediction, H2H and probable line-ups – 15 November 2025
In a friendly match, Brazil will face Senegal on Saturday, 15 November. Kick-off is set for 17:00 CET, and I’m offering you a betting tip for this fixture.
Brazil vs Senegal: Match preview
Brazil wrapped up their World Cup qualifying campaign in September, and the five-time world champions will indeed be heading to the Mundial. They collected 28 points across 18 rounds, finishing fifth in the table. During the October international break, Brazil played two friendlies: they thrashed South Korea 5–0 but then lost 2–3 to Japan. Now they have two more matches lined up — against Senegal and Tunisia — before facing top-level opponents in the spring, including France. The squad is beginning its preparation for the 2026 World Cup.
Senegal have also booked their place at the World Cup. They delivered a strong qualifying run, earning 24 points in ten matches and finishing two points ahead of DR Congo. Their qualifying campaign ended in October, during the previous international window. Senegal hammered South Sudan 5–0 and Mauritania 4–0. Up next is the clash with Brazil, followed a few days later by a match against Kenya. In late December, Senegal will begin their journey at the Africa Cup of Nations, where they will share a group with Botswana, DR Congo and Benin.

Prediction
It’s a friendly that doesn’t carry high stakes for either side, so neither team is likely to go full throttle. Still, I believe Brazil will win this match, and that’s the bet I recommend.
