Nigeria 🇳🇬 vs Egypt 🇪🇬 Predictions

[YUJAM]

Egypt have been quite shaky during the WCQs. Keep Salah in check and Nigeria have a good chance of showing then pepper. I tip Awoniyi to show his stuff.

Nigeria 2 Egypt 1

[Robotnik]

Nigeria vs Egypt 1-1

[Tobi17]

My take: Egypt have looked very good as a team under Carlos Queiroz, they've also gelled more as a team by playing in the Arab cup so that will prove an advantage for them. Players to watch are Salah and Omar marmoush, they are the players that will be lethal for them if we don't take care, but they have a shaky defence and average midfield... needless to say the likes of Chukwueze, Awoniyi/Umar Sadiq, Nacho will seriously test them... Our firepower in attack is quite superior to theirs as they are mostly Salah-reliant... it will be a close one and we should be ready for some heart-in-our-mouths moments with Salah doing his magic (we can cage Salah, but for how long?) all it takes is a lapse in concentration.

My prediction

Nigeria 3 vs Egypt 2

[Enyi]

I think it will be 2-0

My heart tells me Nigeria2-0Eygpt

My head is yelling SE 0 - 2 Eygpt….

I am taking Anadin…will sort it out before Tuesday

[naijaguy]

We will beat Egypt 2-0.
I can name the scorers too if anyone cares.

[waka-man]

1-0 to Nigeria.
It will a tense, dire affair.

[2think]

We will beat Egypt 2-0.

Reminds me of Lukemana's confidence when he predicted the outcome of the same fixture in ANC 2010 (where's he these days?) - crazy stuff

Will always be rooting for the eagles come match day

[Damunk]

2-1 Nigeria

[Lolly]

Tough one to predict. But I feel the best we can get is a draw.

Mcal,

I agree with you and that's my prediction as well. Let's wait and see, that's all

When have we ever had a non-shambolic preparation for any competition?

[TonyTheTigerKiller]

Rohr supporters, predictably disenfranchised, are predicting doom and gloom but Nigeria has a very strong team, albeit somewhat thin in midfield (depends on how much Nwakali brings) and iffy in the back but this weakness will be mitigated if Eguavoen picks the right partner for Ekong. An independent European analyst rates Nigeria’s attack as one of the best; in the entire world. I say Nigeria 3:1 Egypt


Cheers.

This one no be prediction bros! Make una tok am abeg

We always start slow in tournaments, and I feel both teams won’t be going all out having mutual respect for each other so I’m thinking a tough draw all zeros or 1:1.

That's why it's befuddling why Rohr had to bring Ighalo back!

[airwolex]

Honestly, this is very hard to call. All i know is that no matter what, we will qualify. I predict we get into the semis

Of everything that Rohr did, bringing Ighalo back is the very last thing I’d quarrel with. Ighalo was the top scorer at the last AFCON and you have to respect that. If Awoniyi is not firing then, at least, we have a reliable backup in Ighalo


Cheers.

My prediction 1-1

[Scipio Africanus]

I predict an exciting 0-0 draw. I hope I'm wrong and we win.

Aaah, Maceo4; wetin you say make I do? Na my prediksion be dat-oo!
In a more serious note though, I think we will win Egypt, else I see a DRAW.

[Bigpokey24]

Egypt has Carlos Quizero as coach,,, a very defensive coach... guess what he did vs SE in WC2014

[sabb]

1 - 1 for me
our strikers are not tournament tested unless nacho is ready to bring his epl form then the SE might triumph
cmon SE

...always. This latest one is mind bugling, firing a coach, mishandling of invitation list.
