Egypt Team News

Lately, Egypt have turned into a formidable handball force, which is capable of beating any team in the world. Everything began on their soil in 2021, when they came all the way to the quarter-final in a World Cup played in empty arenas. Denmark managed to get the better of them after a heart-stopping shootout, but the result paved the way for the future.

On their way to the bronze-medal game at the Olympics, they managed to eliminate Germany and Sweden, but Spain prevented them from winning a historic medal. After Tokyo, they won their 8th African Cup gold medal, while in the general rehearsal for this World Cup they almost managed to take down France and only lost by a goal.

Croatia Team News

Even though Croatia will be forced to enter the tournament without numerous key pieces, they still have enough quality to achieve a solid result. They will not be able to count on four very important Bundesliga players, Halil Jaganjac, Domagoj Pavlović, Marko Mamić and David Mandić, who were joined on the injury list by Ivan Čupić and Tin Lučin.

The Croatian rotation doesn´t possess its usual width, but the starting lineup led by Duvnjak and Cindrić looks impressive and has the potential to fight for a medal. However, reaching the quarterfinals and securing the Olympic qualifiers would still be a satisfactory achievement with the current roster situation.

Egypt vs Croatia Prediction

Even though head coach Roberto Parrondo will not be able to count on his best player Omar Yahia, Egypt are all set for another successful tournament and will be a dangerous outfit at this World Cup.

In this crucial game which will most probably determine the winner of the group, they will be looking to take advantage of the roster problems Croatia are facing with. At the start of big tournaments, Croatia typically struggle against exotic and unknown teams that are hard to scout, but they know everything about Egypt and should be able to win crucial points.
