Egypt v Uruguay Predictions for Friday's 2018 World Cup finals group fixture at Central Stadium in Yekaterinburg. Hector Cuper's squad selection will surely miss the quality of the 2017-18 Premier League best goalscorer Mohamed Salah, who was injured in the Champions League final three weeks ago, but the Egyptian is in the Pharaohs tournament squad but is unlikely to start here.
With Mohamed Salah an obvious blow to this Egypt team, add the fact Egypt have not celebrated a win since late November in 2017, five of the six disappointments were actually friendlies meant to serve as preparation for the World Cup; Moreover, they could only score one single goal in their last four, a late Ashraf goal against Kuwait, as they fell to Portugal (2-1), Greece (1-0) and Belgium (3-0) while drawing 0-0 with Colombia.
Uruguay were rather inactive in their warm-up on the road to Russia, having played just one friendly - a 3-0 success over Uzbekistan - since the South Americans sealed the China Cup with a 1-0 win against Wales following a 2-0 progress to the final at the expense of the Czech Republic. Although La Celeste hold a perfect record (W3) in 2018, there are still question marks around their current playing form.
Uruguay (4-3-1-2): Muslera; Caceres, Godin, Gimenez, Varela; Nandez, Vecino, Bentancur; Arrascaeta; Suarez, Cavani.
Uruguay: No missing players.
