Prediction: 0-1
Egypt
Egypt will look to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Nigeria when they take on Guinea Bissau at Stade Omnisport Roumde Adjia on Saturday. The Pharaohs failed to impress in the AFCON 2021 opener, but they are still seen as hot favourites to win their second group game. Mohamed Salah is eager to open his goal-scoring account, and the Liverpool ace is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line.
Al Ahly midfielder Akram Tawfik, who suffered an injury in the defeat to Nigeria, is unlikely to feature against Guinea Bissau. The Djurtus, on the other hand, played out a goalless draw with Sudan in the opening match of their Africa Cup of Nations campaign. Considering that Guinea Bissau squad has been hit by coronavirus, we believe that the Egyptians are going to pick up all three points from Saturday’s clash.

Egypt suffered a 4-2 loss to Hungary on their World Cup debut and it has to be noted that the African team scored no more than one goal at the 1990 FIFA World Cup.
