This is the burning shock of group A in the race for the World Cup! Tuesday, at 6 p.m., live from the August 4 stadium, Burkina Faso, unleashed and in ambush, is ready to scratch the leader. Opposite, Egypt, intractable, advances in block, sure of its strength. A gala poster, between offensive fire and defensive wall!2nd of the group with 14 points, Burkina Faso plays big at home: in the event of a victory, the stallions would return just 2 lengths from Egypt. Worn by a recent card against Djibouti 0-6, the men of Traore Brama sent a clear message: they are in full swing! With 19 goals scored, they even display the group's best attack, carried by men in shape: Tapsoba and Ouattara chain doubles, while Irie and Tiendrebeogo also invite themselves to the party.

Assessment? An attractive, offensive team, and galvanized by its audience. But sufficient to overthrow the pharaohs?Not a single defeat on the clock! 6 Victories, 1 draw, 4 clean sheets of row including friendly matches: Egypt is advancing with authority and composure. The recipe? An iron defense of 2 goals conceded and clinical efficiency in the last meters 16 goals scored. During the first leg, the Pharaohs won 2-1 and confirmed historic invincibility against Burkina Faso. This experienced and balanced team could well take a big step towards the World Cup in the event of a good result in Ouagadougou!

Egypt, under the stewardship of legendary striker Hossam Hassan, has undergone a quiet transformation since the departure of Rui Vitoria. Hassan’s tenure began with a friendly win over New Zealand and a narrow loss to Croatia, but his competitive record remains spotless in qualifiers. The Pharaohs’ squad is stacked with depth: Salah remains the talisman, supported by Mostafa Mohamed, Osama Faisal, and Mahmoud Trézéguet. The midfield, anchored by Hamdy Fathy and Ahmed Sayed Zizo, has shown composure and creativity, while the defense—featuring Mohamed Hany and Rami Rabia—has conceded just twice in the last five matches.

Despite Egypt’s historical dominance over Burkina Faso, the Stallions’ homecoming and recent momentum could tilt the balance. Expect a tightly contested match, with Burkina Faso pressing early and Egypt relying on counterattacks and set pieces. Our prediction leans toward a 2-1 victory for Egypt, with Salah and Marmoush likely to find the net, while Bertrand Traoré could strike for the hosts. It’s a scoreline that reflects Egypt’s edge in experience and composure, but also acknowledges Burkina Faso’s growing threat and the emotional lift of playing in front of a home crowd hungry for an upset.

• Summary: Burkina Faso is going head to head with Egypt starting on 9 Sept 2025 at 16:00 UTC at Stade du 4-Août stadium, Ouagadougou city, Burkina Faso. The match is a part of the FIFA World Cup, Qualification CAF, Group A .
