Egypt vs Benin Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 1.28 expected goals for Egypt and 0.55 for Benin, a combined total of 1.83. That distribution gives Egypt the largest share of the 1X2 market at 55%, with the draw at 30%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 28% for over 2.5 goals and 31% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 21%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 55% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Egypt win, at 54.6%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 31% and over 2.5 goals at 28%.
A 55% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
