Egypt U23 vs Guinea U23 Prediction: Guinea U23 to stun Egypt U23

The AFCON Total Energies U23 AFCON U23 first semi-final kickoff pit Egypt U23 against Guinea U23 at the Grand Stade de Tanger. No doubt, the two sides will now look to book their spot in the final matchup. However, which side takes advantage here. 

Egypt U23 - confident of keeping another clean sheet

The Egypt U23 squad performed admirably to earn a berth in the semifinals of the competition by finishing in first place in the Group B table. Egypt U23 has played three matches so far in this competition and has accumulated seven points. They have also scored three goals, and their defensive performance has been outstanding, as they have not yet allowed an opponent to score against them. In their most recent match, which was against Gabon U23, Egypt U23 settled for a draw at halftime. The highlight of that half was Roy Mbongui of Gabon U23 being sent off at the 42nd time for a second yellow card. Despite this, Egypt U23 was able to score twice in the second half because of their increased offensive play. Late goals from Mahmoud Saber and Osama Faisal were sufficient to push Egypt U23 through to this semi-final encounter. In spite of the fact that they are now in charge of their own destinies, the Egypt U23 team will strive to maintain their offensive consistency while also delivering another outstanding defensive effort.

Guinea U23 - will Guinea U23 remain solid once again?

The Guinea U23 team's first match at the AFCON U23 tournament resulted in a loss to the host nation, Morocco U23. In that match, the Guinea U23 team saw their first-half lead overturned by the host nation due to two penalty kicks awarded to their opponent. However, in their game two battle against Congo U23, this team showed a significant improvement in play, outscoring their opponent by three goals to one. In the meantime, Guinea U23 came from behind to tie Ghana U23 in their third match of the competition with a goal by Ibrahima Breze in the 61st minute. Not only did they finish in second place in Group A of the Africa Cup of Nations U23 table with four points, but they also scored five goals while only allowing four to be scored against them. However, at this point, all we could do was look forward to witnessing the underdog team in this match perform to the best of their abilities.

Expert Betting Tips

Despite the fact that this is not a match between evenly matched teams, I will not write off this Guinea U23 side just yet because of how well they have performed against more experienced competitors in the past. We should prepare ourselves for a match with few goals scored, as I believe Egypt U23 will continue to be rock-solid in defense.
