Egypt are confirmed to finish top in Group F of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers having managed 11 points ahead of their home game against Gabon. They had to come from down in their last match, against Angola to draw 2-2 and they host a Gabon side keen on finishing second. As of now they have seven points, one ahead of third placed Libya. Egypt’s result against Angola was the third time they managed two or more goals in their last four matches. They are unbeaten in 14 matches, and going back home, they are unbeaten in nine and in each of the last five they’ve won. They also have 12 straight wins in World Cup qualification matches at home, and with five clean sheets in the last six.

Gabon won’t gain much even with a win in this game but facing the African giants, they’ll want to finish with a win. In the first meeting, they were very close to a win over 10-man Egypt, who scored in stoppage time to see it end 1-1. Ahead of this game, they beat Libya 1-0 at home, a result that effectively confirmed Egypt as top finishers. That was Gabon’s second straight clean sheet but these matches have both been at home. Away from home they are struggling, and have four straight losses ahead of this. In World Cup qualification, Gabon have one win in 11 away matches.
