Burkina Faso vs Egypt Prediction

The Stallions have suffered just one loss across all competitions in 2025, with that defeat registered against Tunisia in June. They have won their three competitive games this year, conceding just twice, and will look to build on that form. Four of their last five home games in the qualifiers have ended in draws.

The Pharaohs have enjoyed an unbeaten run against the hosts, recording three consecutive wins, and will look to keep that run intact. They have won seven of their last nine World Cup qualifiers, scoring at least two goals in five games in that period.

The visitors have an impressive record in the World Cup qualifiers, and considering their unbeaten streak in this fixture, we back them to eke out a narrow win.

Prediction: Burkina Faso 1-2 Egypt
