Egypt - Paraguay: Form Analysis
Egypt have been one of the surprise packages at Paris 2024, as they emerged as Group C winners ahead of Spain, the Dominican Republic and Uzbekistan. They entered the group as the third favourite to reach the knockouts.
The Pharaohs got off to a slow start, drawing goalless against Los Quisqueyanos in their opening match before finding their rhythm and beating Uzbekistan 1-0 in their second match.
However, arguably their best performance of the competition came on Tuesday when they shocked the heavily fancied Spain with a 2-1 victory, thanks to a brace in either half by Ibrahim Adel.
Notably, Egypt scored the fewest goals of any of the qualifiers, though they did have the second-best defensive record with just one goal conceded.
Meanwhile, Paraguay secured second place in Group D, which featured group winners Japan, along with Mali and Israel.
La Albirroja got their tournament started with the biggest defeat of the competition, losing 5-0 to Japan but fired back with a 4-2 win over Israel in a match that ended with the South Americans scoring twice in stoppage time after the scores were locked at 2-2 at the 90-minute mark.
They then went on to book their place in the knockouts with a 1-0 win over fellow African representatives Mali in the final group-stage match, with Marcelo Fernandez scoring the only goal in the opening five minutes.

Egypt & Paraguay Squad Analysis
Aymen Hussein is the only Egyptian player to have scored twice in this competition so far and will almost certainly continue to lead the line for the Pharaohs in this crucial matchup.
Veteran Zizo has featured in all three matches for the African nation so far and his influence from midfield will be crucial to their success. The same can be said for former Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny, who is the eldest statesman in the side.
Both teams have full squads at their disposal with no player injuries reported!
Fabian Fernandez’s brace against Israeal and winner versus Mali puts him second in the race for the Golden Boot, one goal off current leading goal-scorer Soufiane Rahimi of Morocco.
Diego Gomez has been the creative spark in La Albirroja’s midfield, notching up two assists to date and he is one to watch in this knockout contest.

Our Egypt vs Paraguay Prediction
Given the group-stage results, it’s somewhat surprising to see Paraguay enter this match as such heavy favourites. They were exceptionally poor in defence in their first two games and were far from convincing in their win over Mali last week.
Egypt, on the other hand, have been one of the surprise packages in Paris this year, overcoming the formidable Spain en route to the knockouts, and we feel that they will be able to avoid defeat in this one. Our Egypt vs Paraguay prediction: Egypt wins or Draw!
