Egypt will seek to go seven points clear when they face Ethiopia in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers Africa region. They meet in Group A, Egypt leading and Ethiopia in fifth. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Ethiopia will not fully enjoy home advantage as they host this match in Morocco. Those conditions will favor Egypt more, and it seems Ethiopia’s search for a first win in the qualifier will extend further.
The Walias are on one win in the last eight matches in competitive action; four ended in defeat. That, and the fact they are winless in eight World Cup qualifiers make them the underdogs here.
Egypt posted draws in their last two matches and will be keen on a return to winning ways. They haven't lost in their last eight matches but the Pharaohs will recall the last time they played away against Ethiopia, they lost 2-0.
That was in the 2023 AFCON qualifiers, and Egypt got a measure of revenge in the home leg with a 1-0 win.
The visitors will head into this game confident of extending their lead, having opened up a six-point gap in Group A. A 1-0 loss to Senegal back in 2022 is still the only time in 15 World Cup qualification matches that they lost. It was also the only time in the 15 matches that Egypt failed to score.

Our Ethiopia vs Egypt Prediction
Our prediction for Ethiopia v Egypt is for Egypt to win with a clean sheet. Ethiopia haven't had a consistent run and this is the type of match that troubles them. It is a double disadvantage that the Walias will be playing this home match away from home.
A lack of an adequate venue back home means they will host this match in Morocco. North African weather will instead favor Egypt. Ethiopia, who are still winless in this group might have just signed up for another round of dropped points.
