As of the April 2014 FIFA rankings, Senegal remains in the same position as the previous month, staying at 63rd place globally and 13th in Africa. This stability in their ranking reflects little movement for the team, despite ongoing preparations for their 2015 African Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Compared to their upcoming opponents in the qualifiers, Tunisia (ranked 7th in Africa) and Egypt (ranked 2nd in Africa) are ahead of Senegal. At the top of the African rankings is the Ivory Coast, ranked 21st globally, leading the charge for African football.
The next update in the FIFA rankings will be released on June 8, just days before the 2014 World Cup begins in Brazil. This upcoming ranking could reflect any changes following the team’s preparations and performances leading up to the tournament.
