Following a 5-0 victory over Iraq, Thiaw is expected to make several significant changes to the starting lineup to field his most competitive squad for the crucial encounter. One anticipated adjustment is in defense, with Isma茂l Jakobs, who was not in the starting eleven for the last match, expected to return to the left-back position. His high-level experience, speed, and ability to push forward are considered vital assets for containing Belgium's transitions and adding depth to Senegal's play.
