Egypt - Iran. On the eve

The third round of Group G will present fans with an all-important clash between Egypt and Iran. Heading into the final group stage match, it is the Egyptians who lead the quartet with four points, while Iran have two points and remain in contention for a place in the play-offs. The price of a mistake is extremely high: a victory can open the door to the 1/16 finals, and a failure can put an end to tournament ambitions. EGYPT — IRAN SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 06:00 ▪️ LUMEN FIELD, SEATTLE ▪️ HEAD REFEREE - Szymon Marcyniak (POLAND) ▪️ LIVE ON MEGOGO Hossam Hassan's team approaches the match on a wave of positive emotions after a historic victory over New Zealand (3:1). Having conceded the score at the start of the meeting, the "Pharaohs" showed their character and completely seized the initiative after the break. Goals were scored by Mustafa Zico, Mohamed Salah and Trezeguet, and the success itself allowed Egypt to win a match in the final part of the World Cup for the first time in its modern history. Special attention will traditionally be focused on Salah. The leader of the national team is once again confirming his status as the main star of the team, regularly creating sharpness and determining the pace of attacks. Together with Omar Marmouche, he forms one of the most dangerous attacking duos among the African teams at the tournament. At the same time, the coaching staff of the Egyptians can also be satisfied with the personnel situation - before the decisive match, the team has no new injuries or disqualifications. Iran, led by Amir Galenai, also remain unbeaten in the tournament, although two consecutive draws have prevented the team from taking a serious step towards the playoffs. The result of the second round, where representatives of Asia held a zero draw against Belgium, deserves special respect. The Iranians did an exemplary job in defense, blocked the space for the opponent's leaders and demonstrated excellent organization of the game without the ball. However, if the defense works almost flawlessly, the attack still leaves questions. The team is yet to score in two World Cup matches, so the pressure will be on Mehdi Taremi and his partners. A draw may not be enough for Iran, so Galena will have to find a balance between traditional caution and the need to take risks for victory. Quick counter-attacks through the flanks and the use of free zones behind Egypt's active full-backs can play an important role. In terms of expectations, Egypt will settle for even a draw that guarantees a place in the play-offs, while Iran needs to think about the maximum result. That is why the African team will probably bet on Salah's quick transitions in attack and individual skill, while the Iranians will try to use their discipline and organization. In such a scenario, the fate of the meeting can be decided by one well-hit shot or one defensive error. 👑 betking offers to bet on the victory of Egypt with the odds of 2.45, and the probable success of Iran is estimated at 4.00.
