EGY VS ZIM DREAM11 MATCH PREDICTION, PLAYING XI, PREVIEW, FANTASY TEAM NEWS

The EGY vs ZIM Dream11 match preview –

 

The curtain raiser for the African Cup of Nations will see hosts Egypt face Zimbabwe in the first game of the tournament on Friday.

Egypt are coming off the FIFA World Cup 2018 after losing all of the three games they had to play. Even though their star player in Mohamed Salah was injured, a better and a more gutsy performance was expected from the side, but it wasn’t there to be seen. This is time for the roster to respond, and they will be looking to go as far as they can in this competition.

Meanwhile, Zimbabwe are one of the lowly teams in Africa, but they do have a core of players who are experienced enough to play in pressure situations. The side has to make sure they qualify for the next round of the tournament, and it can only be done, if they manage to scrape a point against the hosts here.
