After a nervy Round of 32 against Cape Verde &#8211; where they finished 3-2 after extra time &#8211; Scaloni&#8217;s side showed their ability to find a way through against stubborn, organised opposition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Egypt reach the Round of 16 having beaten Australia on penalties &#8211; a historic achievement for a nation that had never previously won a World Cup knockout match. However, Egypt&#8217;s route here has required penalties and maximum effort in every match, raising genuine questions about their physical reserves heading into this tie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Argentina have won 10 of their last 12 matches without conceding more than once, and Messi&#8217;s hat-trick against Algeria confirmed the squad carries genuine attacking depth. Egypt will defend deep, but Argentina&#8217;s individual quality through Messi, Lautaro and \u00c1lvarez should prove too much across 120 potential minutes in Atlanta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-under-2-5-goals\">Under 2.5 goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on the fact both teams played 120 minutes in the Round of 32, and given Argentina&#8217;s offensive liabilities in normal time against Cape Verde &#8211; where they generated just 1.67 xG in regular time &#8211; the under 2.5 goals market carries compelling value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Egypt have conceded just twice in five tournament matches &#8211; their defensive unit is compact, well-drilled under Hossam Hassan and capable of frustrating Argentina for extended periods. Egypt also held Belgium and Iran to 1-1 draws in the group stage, demonstrating the kind of patient defensive resilience that limits high-scoring outcomes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Argentina scored just once against Cape Verde in normal time before the game opened up in extra time &#8211; and Egypt will not leave the same spaces. A 1-0 or 2-0 controlled Argentine victory is the most probable single outcome, making the under very well supported before a ball is kicked. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.betmgm.com\/en\/blog\/world-cup\/argentina-vs-egypt-prediction-odds-preview-world-cup-july-7-bm16\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitc.com\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-usmnt-star-man-christian-pulisic-ahead-of-world-cup-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/world-cup\/bosnia-herzegovina-world-cup-2026-fixtures-squad-analysis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-toplist\">\n        <div class=\"sq-toplist__items\">\n\t\t\t    <div\n            class=\"sq-toplist__item\"\n            data-entity-id=\"1381348\"\n            data-offer-id=\"1381453\"\n    >\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-container\">\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/paddy-power?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"Paddy Power\"data-placement=\"in-content-single-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.0\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"logo\" class=\"sq-toplist__logo\" style=\"background:#115945\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/04\/29203621\/paddypower.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Paddypower Logo\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer-box\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__bookmaker\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/paddy-power?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"Paddy Power\"data-placement=\"in-content-single-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.0\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"brand_name\">Paddy Power<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-tablet-visible\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/paddy-power?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"Paddy Power\"data-placement=\"in-content-single-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.0\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Bet \u00a310 Get \u00a350 In Free Bets<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-mobile-visible\">\n                    <a href=\"\/en\/go\/paddy-power?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"Paddy Power\"data-placement=\"in-content-single-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.0\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Bet \u00a310 Get \u00a350 In Free Bets<\/a>                <\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/paddy-power?q=gb-all-top-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"Paddy Power\"data-placement=\"in-content-single-toplist\" data-rating=\"9.0\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"cta\" class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary sq-btn--full\">Claim Offer<\/a>                <div class=\"sq-rating\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__text\">Our Score<\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__value\">9.0<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/paddy-power-bonus\/\" class=\"sq-review-link\">\n                    <span>Read our review<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <ul class=\"sq-toplist__features\">\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Enhanced Offers<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Exceptional Mobile App<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Fun Social Media Content<\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t            <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-tc\"><p>#AD 18+ New Customer offer.

He scored all three goals against Algeria in the group stage and has now netted in every World Cup appearance at this tournament &#8211; a consistency of output that defines him as the most reliable scorer in this entire competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Messi&#8217;s tendency to take responsibility for Argentina&#8217;s most important moments &#8211; set pieces, direct free kicks and penalties &#8211; gives him multiple routes to the first goal in a match Argentina are expected to dominate from early on. Egypt will sit deep and invite early pressure &#8211; precisely the conditions under which Messi most frequently opens the scoring, given he has scored or assisted within the first 20 minutes in four of his last seven international appearances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At generous odds against a tournament debutant in knockout football, Messi&#8217;s first goalscorer price
