Egypt vs Niger Free Friendly Fixture Predictions by Football Ground Guide

Since 2010, Egypt and Niger have clashed five times. Of those five encounters, Egypt won thrice while Niger won once. A draw was also recorded in the five encounters. The following are our best free predictions for this upcoming duel:

Egypt to score first

It is never easy to defeat Egypt at home. They won the last four home games, so backing them to score first despite losing 4-1 in a friendly against Korea Republic is a good pick. The Pharaohs have a chance to redeem their dwindling fortunes, so back Egypt to find the back of the net first.

Egypt favourite to win

Egypt has four consecutive victories in their last four home games. On the other hand, Niger lost in all their last three away games. We think Egypt will win this game.

Under 2.5 goals

We expect a few goals in this clash between Egypt and Niger. Egypt lost three of their last five matches and won the other two. On the other hand, Niger suffered as many defeats and bagged two draws from the last five. Most importantly, the visitors never conceded more than a goal in any of their last four games, so a clash with a defensive side like Egypt will likely yield fewer goals.

Egypt vs Niger Club Friendly Fixture Match Preview

Egypt

FIFA ranks Egypt 40th in the latest listings. The Pharaohs have fallen 8 places in the rankings, mostly due to their performance in the last AFCON tournament. The dismal performance by the Egyptians has forced them to appoint a new head coach, Rui Vitoria. The Portuguese will be in charge of his first international duty with the Pharaohs after a stint with Spartak Moscow where he averaged 1.27 points in 26 games. Rui Vitoria has been to 8 different clubs before, so with a wealth of experience, including at SL Benfica between 2015 and 2019 where here averaged 2.20 points in 183 (the best record in his coaching career), there is hope he can revamp the spirits of the Pharaohs in this clash with Niger.

Niger

The most recent ranking by FIFA puts Niger at position 119. The visitors have equally gone downhill in performance, losing 3 places on the FIFA list. However, with one victory in five duels with Egypt, Niger has a tough challenge in this trip. The visitors will be led by French coach, Jean Michel Cavalli who has been in charge since September 2020. The visiting coach averages 1.11 points in 18 matches. Moreover, the 65-year-old coach has had a longer career than Egypt's tactician. Cavalli has coached more than ten clubs in his career and look  to better his dismal performance with the Menas in this friendly fixture against Egypt.
