Double chance : Egypt or draw

Egypt has started this World Cup well. They won their last game with three goals and drew the match before that, so they are in good shape and playing with confidence. Iran, on the other hand, has been struggling. Their recent results include two losses and three draws, and they have not won a match in a long time. In their last few games, they have not been scoring or winning often.

Since these two teams have not played each other recently, there is no history to compare. However, based on current form, Egypt looks much sharper and more dangerous than Iran. This match seems likely to be close, but Egypt appears to be the stronger side right now and should be able to win the game.
