Spain vs Egypt Preview and Team News

Spain Team News

The home team have several key players sidelined with injuries. Aymeric Laporte, Pablo Barrios, Samu Aghehowa, Mikel Merino, and Fabian Ruiz are all ruled out.

Spain’s most recent outing was a convincing 3-0 friendly win over Serbia, and it served as a timely reminder of just how deep and ruthless Luis de la Fuente’s squad has become. 

The game was defined by Mikel Oyarzabal, who scored twice in the first half (16th and 43rd min) to put La Roja in complete control. Víctor Muñoz capped his Spain debut with the third goal in the 72nd minute, finishing a precise Ferran Torres assist.

Perhaps the most notable subplot was the return of Rodri, making his first start since 2024 as he continues his comeback from a serious knee injury. 

For Tuesday’s clash, De la Fuente is expected to ring the changes significantly. Oyarzabal, Rodri, and Pedri are likely to drop out, while Dani Olmo, Martín Zubimendi, Pablo Fornals, and Ferran Torres are in line for starting berths. Dean Huijsen and Alejandro Grimaldo should feature at the back. 

Spain predicted lineup vs Egypt (4-2-3-1): Raya; Porro, Huijsen, Cubarsí, Grimaldo; Zubimendi, García; Olmo, Torres, Pino; Muñoz

Egypt Team News

Egypt have already made it to the World Cup and will use this friendly to fine-tune their preparations. They have mixed form coming into this fixture — they have been unbeaten in their last five games, but won just two. Recently, they played out a goalless draw with Nigeria in the bronze cup final of the AFCON, which they eventually lost via penalties.

Egypt’s form picture looks considerably brighter after a stunning 4-0 demolition of Saudi Arabia in Jeddah – a result that will have caught the attention of plenty of World Cup observers. The Pharaohs were ruthless on the counter-attack, scoring through Islam Issa (4′), Trezeguet (16′), Zizo (44′), and Omar Marmoush (56′). 

Notably, Mohamed Salah was absent from the Saudi Arabia match entirely, with injury keeping the Liverpool captain out of the squad. His availability for Tuesday’s game against Spain remains a key talking point. Mohamed Abdelmonem has been confirmed out with injury for the Spain fixture.

The win over Saudi Arabia will give Hossam Hassan’s squad significant confidence, and they arrive in Barcelona having shown they can be devastating in transition.

Egypt predicted lineup vs Spain (4-2-3-1): Shobeir; Sobhi, Fathi, Rabia, Hany; Lasheen, Zizo; Trezeguet, Ashour, Salah; Marmoush.

Spain vs Egypt Prediction

  • Pick: Spain to win
  • Odds: -303 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Spain 3-1 Egypt

We expect Spain to win. They are playing on home turf and have the advantage of being unbeaten in each of their last five games. Moreover, their attackers have responded well, finding the back of the net on multiple occasions in these games.

Egypt, for their part, have been inconsistent, failing to score in several of their last matches. However, their 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia is a major caveat worth noting. That result showed Hossam Hassan’s side have genuine attacking threat on the break, particularly through Marmoush, Trezeguet, and a potentially returning Salah.

Spain vs Egypt Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Egypt total – over 0.5 goals
  • Odds: -127 (20Bet)

Egypt should score at least one goal here. While Salah is the most obvious choice to do so (19 goal contributions for Liverpool across all competitions – check), Omar Marmoush can also be a handy option. The Manchester City attacker has been involved in nine goals for his club this season, and has also struck 10 times for his country. 

Marmoush came off the bench against Nigeria and completed 78% of his passes. However, he impressed the most with his long ball accuracy of 100%, as did Salah with his shooting accuracy (100%).

His composed finish against Saudi Arabia — his country’s fourth goal of the night — only reinforces the case that Egypt will find the net.
