Egypt play Jordan at the Al Bayt Stadium on Tuesday in their final group match at the 2025 FIFA Arab Cup, aiming to make one last push to reach the knockout stages. With just two points from as many games, the Pharaohs are currently second in Group C, trailing leaders Jordan by four points.
They can reach the knockout stages if they manage to avoid a loss against the Jordanians, while the UAE-Kuwait match must end in a stalemate, as that would keep the Gulf sides behind Egypt (both have only one point so far).
A victory, though, remains the best prospect, but that is exactly what has been missing from Egypt's campaign so far. The North African giants sealed a late 1-1 draw against Kuwait in their opening game before getting pegged back by Egypt in the dying embers in another identical stalemate.
Jordan have won both their matches so far and cannot be caught, as they have already sealed their place in the next round. The Chivalrous Ones overcame the UAE 2-1 in their first group match, before defeating Kuwait 3-1 in their next as Jordan stormed into the quarter-finals as Group C winners.

Egypt vs Jordan Prediction
Given their healthy record in the fixture, Egypt can be excused for coming in with an air of confidence, but Jordan are the better side on paper here.
However, with their progression already secured, the Chivalrous Ones could take their feet off the pedal here, letting Egypt come back into the game and take a point.
Prediction: Egypt 1-1 Jordan
