Egypt vs Niger Prediction: The home side won’t hold back at halftime

On Friday, Egypt will lock horns with Niger at the Borg El Arab Stadium. The home side will be hopeful of returning to winning ways while the visitors would like to build on their last match success.

Last five games: WLWLL

After losing to Ethiopia 0-2 in the second round of Group D in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and against South Korea 1-4 in a friendly match, the Egyptian national team will host Niger on Friday.

Egypt has decided to part ways with their former coach and will continue with Portuguese tactician Rui Vitoria. The task is to qualify for the 2023 African Championships in Ivory Coast.

Before now, the Egyptian side have been a shadow of themselves and will not be participating in the forthcoming World Cup tournament. The Egyptians are ranked 40th by FIFA and have picked up six points from a possible fifteen.

Key Player: Mohammed Salah

Last five matches: LDLLW

The Menas of Niger have managed a win in the last eight games, and they head into this game after their victory against Togo in the African Championship Qualifiers. They have been poor in front of goal.

They won’t be gracing the World Cup Tournament, and their seat in the forthcoming AFCON Championship isn’t secured.

They have picked up two points from a possible fifteen in the last five competitive games and are rated 119th in FIFA World Ranking.

Key Player: Abdoul Moumouni

The last four meetings have ended in three wins and a draw for Egypt. The visitors won’t be able to match the Egyptians' attacking threats; they are highly inexperienced, and we expect Egypt to take advantage at halftime for 1.42.

We also expect Egypt to score in both halves for 1.85.

Bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 1.60.

Good luck!
