Australia has not been in good form lately, losing three of their last five matches and only managing one win in that stretch. Their most recent game was a 0-0 draw, so they are struggling to score. Egypt has been more solid, with a win and two draws in their last three matches, including a 3-1 victory on the road. They look like the team in better shape right now.

These two teams have not played each other recently, so there is no history to go on. Given Australia's poor run of results and Egypt's more positive form, this match looks likely to be a close one, but Egypt seem slightly more likely to come away with a win. A draw is also a very real possibility.
