Egypt Have the Necessary Skills
Egypt needed a 97th-minute penalty from Mohamed Salah to save a point in their group opener. Failing to secure a victory in the match against Mozambique means they could find themselves in an uncertain position, especially if they lose to Ghana. Despite their shortcomings in the first match, I’m betting Egypt to win at odds of 2.00 Bet9ja.
The stats from Egypt’s last match show they were dominant. They managed 15 more shots than their opponents and kept 61% of the ball. Defensive lapses proved very costly, but it’s a do-or-die situation against a Ghana side still recovering from their loss to Cape Verde.
The Black Stars’ defence were all at sea during that shock defeat, so Salah should have some success here.
Bet 1: Egypt to win @ 2.00 Bet9ja
Attacks to Come Out on Top
Both teams struggled defensively in their last match, and securing three points is crucial. Therefore, our next Egypt vs Ghana prediction is for both teams to score in the match at odds of 2.27 with bet9ja. These sides last went head-to-head in World Cup qualifiers back in 2017, and that game ended in a 1-1 draw.
Mo Salah is undoubtedly the key attacker for Egypt, and he is aiming to win his first trophy with the national team. He has the skills to tear apart a Ghana side that allowed Cape Verde to have five shots on target. The Black Stars will likely have far less possession but should get opportunities to make an impact on the break.
Bet 2: GG @ 2.27 Bet9ja
Salah and Co. to Edge it
The third of our Egypt vs Ghana predictions combines our previous two selections. I’m backing Egypt to come out on top in an entertaining clash where both teams find the net. We can bet this with Bet9ja at odds of 5.30.
The Pharaohs have scored an average of 2.1 goals per game in their last 10 matches, and have the attacking prowess to find the net a few times here.
Ghana are going through a tough patch under Chris Houghton, but Mohammed Kudus’s return to training will provide a big boost. He is enjoying a great season at West Ham and is likely to feature at some stage.
Kudus’ dribbling prowess and exceptional finishing make him a significant threat to any defence, so I expect the Ghanaians to get on the scoresheet, despite ultimately falling short.
Bet 3: Egypt to win & GG @ 5.30 Bet9ja
Cagey Start to Pace the Way for Blockbuster Second Half
The last of our tips is for the majority of the goals to be scored in the second half of the match. This bet is available at odds of 2.19 using Bet9jaa’s highest-scoring half market.
This bet landed in both of these teams’ opening matches, and we can expect a cagey start here. The stakes couldn’t be much higher. Both sides were expected to make winning starts, but their respective defeats have left them teetering on the edge.
The second halves in Egypt’s last 10 matches, including friendlies, average 0.2 goals more than the first. This trend is even more widespread in Ghana’s last 10. The first halves of their matches have seen an average of just 0.8 goals. This climbs to 1.2 in the second half.
Bet 4: 2nd half – highest scoring half @ 2.19 Bet9ja
