Egypt host Liberia at the Borg El Arab Stadium in Alexandria on Tuesday for an international friendly.
Neither team reached the World Cup finals but are looking forward to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in March.
The Pharaohs missed out on back-to-back qualification for the World Cup after Senegal beat them 3-1 on penalties in the March playoffs following a 1-1 aggregate draw.
It came on the back of the AFCON cup final loss against the Lions of Teranga, who rubbed salt in their wounds by denying them a place at the Qatar showpiece too.
Liberia's wait for a World Cup appearance continued after going out in the second round, and they were later beaten 2-0 by Morocco in their first AFCON qualifier.
Egypt vs Liberia Head-To-Head
Egypt have beaten Liberia four times in their previous six clashes, losing twice.
Their last encounter came in June last year when the Pharaohs won 2-0 in a friendly game.

Egypt vs Liberia Prediction
It's been a year of near-misses for Egypt, but that doesn't mean they've been poor - the Pharaohs have otherwise had a good run and their victory over Niger will have boosted their confidence further.
Liberia cannot compare to Egypt in terms of quality and despite their best defensive efforts, they likely won't be able to contain Mohamed Salah and co.
Prediction: Egypt 2-0 Liberia
