One of Africa’s representatives at the FIFA U20 World Cup, Egypt will be up against New Zealand U20 on matchday two. This Group A match will decide these nations’ fate after opening defeats. Read on for our prediction.
Egypt, looking to do better than their third-place finish in 2001, started on the wrong footing. They fell 2-0 to 1999 finalists Japan and will start this round at the bottom of the group.
With a match against hosts Chile also coming up, Egypt have a very slim room for error if they are looking to advance. Heading into this game, Egypt are winless in eight of their last 10 matches.
New Zealand also opened their campaign with a loss. They know another such result will confirm their elimination and look to bounce back here. In 2013 the two nations met in what remains their only matchup so far.
Egypt won 2-1 back then, and New Zealand will be keen on getting one over their African opponents. Their recent run is, however, uninspiring, as they are winless in the last six outings, having lost each of their last five.
That run includes their first-round meeting with hosts Chile, which ended 2-1. Chile’s winning goal in the game came in stoppage time, much to New Zealand’s pain.

Our Egypt -20 vs New Zealand -20 Prediction
The U20 World Cup hasn’t been a great hunting ground for New Zealand. They’ve never gone past the round of 16, and things haven't kicked off in the best way for the youngsters. After their opening loss, they are now winless in six straight matches, a run that includes five defeats.
Egypt aren’t in a really great place either, but they have avoided defeat in more of their recent outings, which will boost their morale. Our prediction for Egypt U20 v New Zealand U20 is that Egypt U20 wins the match.
