Brazil vs Egypt: Team News and Expert Analysis
Brazil did not perform convincingly in qualification. Even after bringing in Ancelotti a year ago, they did not improve and finished with just 28 points from eighteen qualifying matches. They also stumbled regularly in friendlies—in March, for example, they lost to France, although they did beat Croatia. In the summer, they thrashed Panama in a "tennis"-like scoreline, 6-2.
Egypt, on the other hand, comfortably qualified for the World Cup this time, winning their group with 26 points from ten matches. Then came a flop at the Arab Cup, where they didn't win a single game. However, they reached the semifinals of the AFCON, where they lost to Senegal. Most recently, they narrowly defeated Russia, 1-0.
The Latin Americans look solid: they score an average of 2.4 goals while conceding just 1 per match. The North African side is even more pragmatic: just 1.4 goals scored, but only 0.5 conceded on average.
