Ethiopia vs Egypt: Top Free Betting Tips

There was no surprise in Egypt or Ethiopia's first games – Egypt won theirs and Ethiopia lost. Here are our tips for the upcoming fixture between these two curious national teams.

Total Goals – Under 2.5

Despite the huge differences between these two national teams, both share similar results when it comes to goals – most games have less than 2.5 goals. While Egypt are on a decline, we do not expect them to overdo themselves and score more than 1-2 goals. Ethiopia have been scoring goals in absolutely all of their recent matches but those were mostly friendly games against weak national teams. We expect a minimal win for Egypt.

Match Result – Egypt

We think that Egypt will get another 1:0 win in this second fixture of the qualifications. Ethiopia haver not won a match in seven consecutive games and overall not a single win this year. Egypt have been having problems – the team lost the Africa Cup of Nations title to Senegal and then lost the qualification for the world cup – against Senegal again. The team will be motivated for good results and we expect an easy win for the Egyptians.

Both Teams To Score – No

We think that Egypt will find a way to keep a clean sheet in this match. The team has a solid defense but often struggles to score. On the other end, most of Ethiopia's recent matches had both teams scoring goals but almost none of their games were against teams of Egypt's level. We think that Egypt will be the much stronger team in this match and Ethiopia will not have a lot of chances to score overall.

Ethiopia vs Egypt: Form, Recent Games, and News

Ethiopia Preview

Ethiopia's current squad cannot compare to the top teams that perform in the Africa Cup of Nations. None of the teams' players perform at the top levels of European football or nowhere near that level. This is a side that has been having issues for years and we do not expect them to achieve anything in this group, especially after the defeat at the start.

Egypt Preview

Egypt have been one of the top teams in Africa ever since Mohamed Salah rose to fame. Beside him, however, there are few players that perform at the very top of the football world – apart from Mohamed Elneny from Arsenal, Salah is the only star. The team suffered several consecutive defeats from Senegal that cost them the World Cup, so we expect extra motivation from them here.
