Botswana, on the other hand, is seeking its first AFCON victory. The team previously lost all three matches during their sole appearance in 2012. In past encounters, Botswana faced Senegal twice in 2014, losing both matches without scoring. The upcoming match presents an opportunity for Botswana to change their record against Senegal.
The Group D match is set to commence at 4 PM local time at the Grand Stade de Tanger in Tangier.
