Australia vs Egypt: Storylines

The gold medal is special, it is not the World Cup, but it still counts as a very important event for soccer. Australians, as a soccer team, do not have gold medals. The Socceroos have won several continental titles: Asian Cup and OFC Nations Cup. Since 1956, Australia has been present at most of the Summer Olympics events but without winning soccer tournament medals.

Egypt has a similar history, but with the only difference that the pharaohs have played soccer in more Olympic Games than the Australians. Experience is what counts. Egypt's only point in Group C is thanks to a 0-0 draw against Spain. That was the best game of the African team in the 2020 Olympics.

Both teams are good at what they do. Australia and Egypt have played each other a couple of times, one win each, similar numbers and nothing surprising. The game will be physical, the midfield will play a fundamental role for the victory.

Australia vs Egypt: Predictions And Odds

The hardest decision is to choose a side for this game. But thank goodness there are no favorites. The two teams are underdogs. Australia at +175 odds is a bit more lucrative than Egypt at +170 odds. That five-point difference in odds doesn't say much, just that the pharaohs are slightly more favored. The draw is tempting at +250 odds at Draftkings.
