Australia vs Egypt Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Egypt
- Odds: +158 (Tonybet)
Australia have shown their defensive prowess by keeping clean sheets against Turkiye and Paraguay in the group stage. However, they conceded twice against the United States and were quite lucky to beat Turkiye in their opener, despite losing the expected goals battle (1.36-1.18). The Socceroos could struggle to contain Egypt’s pacey attacking line, regardless of whether Mohamed Salah is available.
Salah’s absence would diminish the Pharaohs’ chances considerably, but this is a team that have scored in all three of their World Cup matches while averaging 16 total shots per game. They have plenty of talent in the final third, and with Australia likely to sit back and play on the counter, the African giants should dominate possession.
Egypt are at their best when dictating the tempo, and they recorded over 55% possession in two of their three group-stage matches. While Australia should make things difficult for them, the Pharaohs have enough quality to find the back of the net and ultimately protect the result. They’re the more talented team and have far more attacking resources, making them favourites to advance to the Round of 16.
Australia vs Egypt Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Omar Marmoush to score anytime
- Odds: +280 (Tonybet)
Considering Salah isn’t at full strength due to a hamstring injury, Omar Marmoush looks like a prime candidate to score. The Manchester City forward has yet to find the back of the net in the tournament, but he’s the best option to deploy as a striker here against a physical, bruising Socceroos defence. Expect Marmoush to represent a major threat upfront for the Pharaohs.
Australia vs Egypt Same Game Parlay
- SGP: Egypt to win + Over 1.5 total goals + Over 5.5 total corners
- Odds: +300 (Tonybet)
We’re backing Egypt to win because of their superior attacking talent, although this is unlikely to turn into a one-sided affair. Australia have proven they can push the lines forward on the counter, so the Pharaohs will need to be wary of that. All three of Egypt’s group-stage games saw both teams score – and therefore over 1.5 goals – and we expect that scoring trend to continue here.
Aside from an Egypt win and over 1.5 total goals, we also like over 5.5 total corners. The Pharaohs are particularly dangerous down the flanks and consistently create corner opportunities through sustained pressure. Australia’s reliance on wide play and set pieces should also contribute to the overall corner count. Egypt alone averaged 6.0 corners per game during the group stage, tallying eight against Iran and seven against Belgium.
Australia vs Egypt Team News
Australia Team News
Australia will be without Matthew Leckie (hamstring) and Jacob Italiano (groin), as both players have been ruled out for the rest of the World Cup, leaving the Socceroos with only 24 players available. Aziz Behich and Conor Metcalfe are expected to step into the starting lineup as their replacements.
The biggest question for Australia is who will start between the posts, as manager Tony Popovic has rotated his lineup throughout the tournament. Mathew Ryan is the most experienced option, but it seems Patrick Beach, who was expected to be the third-string goalkeeper, will get the nod here once again. He started all three group-stage matches.
Egypt Team News
Egypt’s biggest concern is whether Salah will be available after exiting the group-stage finale against Iran with a hamstring injury. However, the star winger is trending in the right direction and was spotted training on the grass on Tuesday. He’s expected to be available even if he’s not 100% ready to go.
The Pharaohs are still likely to be shorthanded even with Salah back in the mix. Mohanad Lasheen is suspended due to yellow-card accumulation, while Ahmed El Fotouh (hamstring), Mohamed Abdelmonem (ankle), Hossam Abdelmaguid (concussion), and Hamdy Fathy (groin) are all dealing with injuries. Fathy and Abdelmonem appear the least likely to recover in time.
