Egypt have been eliminated from the Women's Africa Cup of Nations after two consecutive defeats. Nigeria picked up their first victory of the tournament and must win again to have a chance of advancing to the knockout rounds. Nigeria are predicted to win to nil.

Egypt have scored 4 goals in 5 matches.
Egypt have conceded 12 goals in 5 games.
Nigeria have won 4 of their last 5 fixtures.
Nigeria have scored 10 goals in 5 matches.

Head to Head

Egypt and Nigeria will meet for the first time in a competitive match.

Egypt Women Form

Egypt succumbed to their second consecutive defeat at the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations last weekend, losing 3-1 to Malawi.

The Female Pharaohs had 42% possession and 15 shots in the match, with five attempts on target.

Before that result, Egypt suffered a heavy defeat in their opening group game against Zambia, losing 6-0.

Egypt are last in the Group C standings with no points after two matches.

The Female Pharaohs have won two of their last five fixtures, along with three defeats. They scored four goals and conceded 12.

Egypt have had a disappointing tournament and have only pride to play for, but look unlikely to get a result against Nigeria, as their opponents have been in solid form, having won five of their last six matches.

Nigeria Women Form

Nigeria got their WAFCON campaign back on track when they secured a narrow victory over Zambia last weekend, winning 1-0.

The Super Falcons had 49% possession and seven shots in the game, with three attempts on target.

Earlier in their campaign, Nigeria did not have the start they had hoped for when they faced Malawi in their opening group match, losing 3-2.

Nigeria are second in the Group C table with three points after two rounds.

The Super Falcons have won four of their last five fixtures, with one defeat. They scored ten goals and conceded four.

Nigeria will be pleased to have recorded their first victory at WAFCON and will fancy their chances of beating Egypt convincingly in order to advance to the knockout rounds of the tournament after their opponents conceded nine goals in their last two games.
