Key Stats – Egypt Tipped to Win

Head to Head – Egypt Dominates

These nations have met seven times since 1992. Egypt hold a 4-0 advantage with three draws.

They last met in a World Cup qualifier in 2021 as it finished in a 2-2 draw in Angola.

Angola Struggling – One win in 10 competitive matches

Angola topped their AFCON qualifying group but won just two of 10 World Cup qualifiers (six draws). They have one point from two matches in this competition so far.

They played three friendlies coming into the tournament. A 2-0 home loss to Argentina was followed by a 3-2 win over Zambia and a 4-1 win vs Mozambique.

Their AFCON opener saw a 2-1 loss to South Africa. Their second fixture saw a 1-0 lead surrendered in a 1-1 draw vs Zimbabwe as they allowed 17 shots.

Pharaohs’ Flying High - Egypt with Group B top spot secured

Egypt are in great form and have already sealed top spot in Group B at this AFCON.

The Pharaohs played three friendlies before this tournament. They lost 2-0 to Uzbekistan, drew 1-1 vs Cabo Verde and beat Nigeria 2-1.

Egypt beat Zimbabwe 2-1 in their AFCON opener with 35 shots and eight big chances created. With ten men, they beat South Africa 1-0 in their second match after a heroic defensive display.

Predicted Lineups & Team News

Angola (4-3-3): Hugo Marques; Mata, Carmo, Gaspar, Carneiro ; Maestro, Show, Fredy; Luvumbo, Mabululu, Milson.

Centre back Gaspar of Lecce in Serie A could return to the XI. Mabululu is expected to lead the line as Mbala Nzola has not impressed.

Maestro is also set for a recall in midfield. He did well against South Africa, but lost his place against Zimbabwe.

Egypt (4-3-3): Elshenawy; Rabia, Ibrahim, Abdelmaguid, Hamdi; Attia, Ashour, Fathy; Salah, Marmoush, Trezeguet.
