Egypt vs Sierra Leone Prediction

The Pharaohs scored at least two goals in a match for the first time after five games last week and also kept their first clean sheet in six games. They are unbeaten at home in the World Cup qualifiers since 2004 and are strong favorites.

Leone Stars are on a three-game unbeaten run in the World Cup qualifiers for the first time since 2008 and will look to build on that form. They have drawn their two away games in the ongoing qualifying campaign.
