Republic of Ireland vs Senegal predictions, odds and betting tips
THE REPUBLIC of Ireland will welcome Senegal to the Aviva Stadium on Friday night for the first of two friendlies ahead of this year's World Cup qualifiers. Buoyed by back-to-back wins, the Boys in Green will be given a stern test by the in-form African giants, who haven't lost for well over a year. Ireland vs Senegal tips Senegal to win or draw and BTTS - Ismaila Sarr to score anytime - Troy Parrott to score anytime - Ireland vs Senegal odds Find the latest football betting odds for Ireland vs Senegal. Our odds are provided by the Ireland vs Senegal predictions The Republic of Ireland return to action on Friday night against an in-form Senegal side, as Heimir Hallgrimsson's men continue preparations for their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign. Ireland will be buoyed by back-to-back 2-1 wins over Bulgaria in their two most recent outings. The 4-2 aggregate win sealed their Nations League B survival and provided some much-needed momentum after a difficult few years. Having failed to qualify for the last four major tournaments, Hallgrimsson will be under pressure to lead Ireland to the 2026 World Cup. He will have his work cut out, with the Boys in Green drawn in a tricky UEFA Group F alongside Portugal, Hungary and Armenia. Since taking over in July 2024, the Icelandic coach has overseen a steady improvement, guiding Ireland to four wins in six since a shaky start. Now, he'll be hoping to extend that run of improved form with positive performances against Senegal and Luxembourg during this international window. Hallgrimsson is likely to be without Seamus Coleman for the match - the skipper is still recovering from injury and is unlikely to be risked. The Irish head coach is also likely to experiment at some point with the uncapped John Joe Patrick Finn, Josh Keeley, Killian Phillips and Josh Honohan all included in the squad. Senegal poses a significant threat. The Lions of Teranga are unbeaten in their last 14 matches. The run includes 10 wins and four draws and sees them firmly in the mix to qualify for the 2026 World Cup from CAF Group B, where they sit second in the table with 12 points from six matches. Pape Thiaw's side don't have the services of Sadio Mane to call upon this Friday. But many Premier League fans will recognise Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson and Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr, who are likely to be a part of Senegal's front three. READ MORE SUN STORIES Ireland vs Senegal betting tips Despite having the home comforts of the Aviva Stadium in their favour, Heimir Hallgrimsson's Ireland team are the underdogs. Find out if they can prove the bookies wrong in our Republic of Ireland vs Senegal match betting tips below: Senegal to win or draw and BTTS Unfortunately for Republic of Ireland fans, Senegal boast a strong squad with several members regularly playing at the highest level of European football, including the Premier League. As a result, we don't see the visitors losing. But, not all hope is lost. Given Ireland's improvement under Hallgrimsson, we can see at least a goal for the Boys in Green, and maybe even a draw. ➡️ Ismaila Sarr to score anytime Ismaila Sarr finished his club season on a massive high with Crystal Palace. As well as lifting the FA Cup at Wembley, Sarr also scored twice in Palace's 3-0 semi-final win over Aston Villa. In the Premier League, Sarr was just as impressive. He contributed two assists and a final-day goal against Liverpool in his last three league appearances for the Eagles. There are options in this market for Senegal. Sarr's Premier League counterpart, Nicolas Jackson also finished the season well with Chelsea, scoring in his team's 4-1 win over Real Betis in the Europa Conference League final. Jackson is 27/10 to score anytime. We are sticking with Sarr, though, as we believe he is the player in better form and more likely to replicate it on the international stage. ➡️ Troy Parrott to score anytime Troy Parrott has enjoyed an excellent season with AZ Alkmaar, scoring an impressive 20 goals in 47 appearances across all competitions for the Dutch side. While the former Spurs striker has yet to replicate that form on the international stage, this could be the perfect moment for Parrott to make his mark in a green shirt. Heimir Hallgrimsson will be well aware that goals from Parrott could prove crucial in Ireland's push for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. So expect the manager to play to his striker's strengths in a bid to unlock his full potential at international level. ➡️ 📺 How to watch Republic of Ireland vs Senegal Location : Aviva Stadium, Dublin Ireland.

Kylie Jenner ‘got a nose job, chin and jaw remodeling, fillers and fat transfers' in addition to boob job, experts say
KYLIE Jenner has gone under-the-knife to get her nose done, chin and jaw remodeled, and fat transfers in addition to her boob job, experts predict to The U.S. Sun. Fresh off the heels of admitting to getting breast implants and revealing details of her makeover, fans have begged the Kylie Cosmetics founder to spill more of her plastic surgery secrets.

While Kylie, 27, has now revealed that she's gotten a breast augmentation as well as filler to her lips for years, there appear to be other procedures she may have had done that she has not yet been open about. Speaking exclusively to The U.S. Sun, 'Her body changes may also reflect fat transfer procedures or body sculpting, which are common among celebrities." Advertisement Fellow 'It's possible that she's also had fillers to her lips and possibly the zygomatic prominence. 'As well as chin and jaw remodeling either surgically or with dermal fillers to give her a more V-shaped appearance.' LIFE IN PLASTIC, IT'S FANTASTIC Kylie nearly broke the internet this week and was applauded for being a 'girl's girl' when she finally revealed the details of her speculated plastic surgery procedure.

Advertisement In a shock to many, Kylie saw and commented on the video, writing: '445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!! silicone!!! garth fisher!!! hope this helps lol.' According to Dr. Bansal, a 445 cc implant 'generally equates to roughly a 1.5 to 2-cup size increase.' The size change is dependent on the patient's body frame and existing breast tissue. Kylie Jenner reveals plastic surgery secrets including doctor details and breast implant size in buried TikTok comment 'For someone of Kylie's more petite build, this would have likely taken her from an A or small B cup to a full C or D,' the respected surgeon said. Advertisement While Dr. Alexandrides predicts, based on Kylie's look, that she is a solid DD cup size. Dr. Bansal also revealed the benefits of the procedure Kylie chose, explaining: 'A dual-plane, or 'half under the muscle' placement, allows the upper portion of the implant to be covered by muscle for a more natural slope. 'While the lower half sits under breast tissue to enhance projection. 'This technique reduces the risk of visible rippling and offers a more natural appearance, especially in thinner patients.' Advertisement BREAST FOOT FORWARD The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum has reportedly had breast implants since she was 19 years old. Kardashian/Jenner kids As of November 2023, there are 13 Kardashian-Jenner grandchildren. Kourtney Kardashian has three kids with her ex Scott Disick: Mason, 14, Penelope, 11, and Reign, nine. In November 2023, she welcomed her first son with her husband Kim Kardashian has four children with her ex-husband Kanye West: North, 11, Saint, eight, Chicago, six, and Psalm, five. Khloe Kardashian has two children with her ex Tristan Thompson: True, six, and Tatum, two. Rob Kardashian has one daughter with his ex Blac Chyna: Dream, seven. Kylie Jenner has two children with her ex Travis Scott: However, breast implants are not lifetime devices, Dr. Bansal warns, and she may need to have future procedures to maintain her health. 'Most require replacement or revision within 10–15 years, sometimes sooner if complications arise. 'Even if the implants are intact, aesthetic preferences change, and women often seek updates for size, shape, or symmetry,especially after major life changes like pregnancy,' the highly renowned surgeon said.
