Egypt v Ethiopia Tips

Egypt won by 2-0 when these two sides met earlier this year in a match. They are leading the group with a great record of five wins and one draw but can't relax yet as Burkina Faso can still catch them at the top of the table.

Egypt have been inconsistent of late and have drawn 3 of their last 6 matches. Ethiopia will be looking to keep things tight as they kept a clean sheet in their last game, so a draw here wouldn't be a surprise.

Ethiopia have a total of 5 wins in their last 10 games, which is not bad when compared to Egypt, who have 6 wins in 5 games. Ethiopia may surprise people here considering they have won their last 2 games.

This clash looks set for plenty of goals. Three of Ethiopia’s last 4 games have gone over 2 goals, and the same trend could continue here. Over 2.5 goals is the call.

I don't believe both teams will score today, Egypt are the leaders of this group and conceded just 2 goals in this qualifiers, Ethiopia did not scored in the previous 5 visits here.

Egypt at home should have enough to win this game. They have won the last two meetings and kept a clean sheet while doing so. Egypt have also kept a clean sheet while winning their last two games coming into this.
