Main Match Prediction
We’re keen on Egypt when it comes to this Group G clash. They can be backed at -1 on the Asian Handicap and we’re happy to secure odds of -102 that are currently on offer for this bet.
Considering the xG data from the opening round, along with the significant gap in quality between the two squads and starting elevens, we are confident that Egypt can cover this Asian Handicap. With Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush leading the way, the Pharaohs have the attacking quality to get the job done.
