New Zealand
LLWLLD
New Zealand go into this game after a 2-2 WC stalemate vs Iran.
In that match, New Zealand managed 52% possession and 14 shots on goal with 8 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for New Zealand was Elijah Just (7', 54'). For their opponents, Iran had 17 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. Ramin Rezaeian (32') and Mohammad Mohebi (64') scored for Iran.
It’s been seldom in recent times that New Zealand haven’t conceded. The reality is that New Zealand have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 games, letting in 12 goals along the way. We shall soon find out whether or not that trend will be continued on here.
Egypt
DWDWLD
In their last game, Egypt drew 1-1 in the WC match with Belgium.
In that match, Egypt had 46% possession and 14 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. For Egypt, goals were scored by Emam Ashour (19') and Mohamed Hany (66' Own goal). For their opponents, Belgium had 15 shots at goal with 3 on target.
A series of resolute displays by the Egypt defence has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 3 from their last 6 fixtures overall. In that time, their own attack force has managed to score 7.
💭
Prediction
Our assessment is that New Zealand have enough to score a goal against this Egypt lineup, but a single goal is unlikely to be enough.
We are therefore anticipating a 1-2 winning score for Egypt by the conclusion of the game. Looking forward to this.
