Egypt vs Chile Betting Predictions and Odds – Handball World Cup 2021
Will the hosts start the World Cup with a win?
Competition: Handball World Cup
Date: 13.01.2021
Betting Prediction: Handicap: Victory away +9.5
Odds: 1.95
Stake: 5/10 units
It seems somehow strange that the Handball World Cup will be held in Egypt on Wednesday. After all, the organizers came to the conclusion that the worldwide numbers do not correspond to the planned audience approval of 20 percent. It has been clear since the weekend that the handball world championship will be held in the hall without an audience.
The African champions from Egypt have big plans for the World Cup in their own country. In 2001 the pharaohs reached the semi-finals at the World Cup in France. That would be something that Spanish coach Roberto Garcia Parrondo would really like. First of all, it is important to do well in the preliminary round and take as many points as possible into the main round.
First, the Egyptians will have to deal with the Chileans, Swedes and Czechs. In the opening match, the well-known bookmakers between Egypt and Chile give a clear prediction of a win for the home side according to odds. However, the South Americans have international experience and if the Chileans are to make it into the main round, the duel against the hosts is of decisive importance.
It actually indicates more than a tip on the home side in the match between Egypt and Chile. The question will be which handicap can best be alluded to in this match. It tends to be tighter for us than the tested betting shops assume, with the pharaohs, in particular, scratching their hooves before the World Cup kicks off.
🤾♂️ Betting Prediction: Over 56.5 goals
Odds: 2.00
Egypt – Statistics & current form
Many world championships in handball have shown that the hosts have an advantage that should not be underestimated. This also applies to the Egyptian national team from Wednesday. The Pharaohs, who are regulars at World Championships and Olympic Games, are currently the best team on the black continent.
Egypt with a winning streak
At the beginning of last year, the Egyptians became African champions in Tunisia. The team of Roberto Garcia Parrondo asserted itself sovereignly. The Pharaohs won all seven tournament games and have only started playing again in preparation for the World Cup. Egypt has a total of nine wins in a row.
The African champions won the only two test matches before the World Cup against Japan. At first, it was enough for a 34:29 victory. A few days later, the Egyptians prevailed again against the Olympic organizers and retained the upper hand with 33:25. In this form, it should be worthwhile to check the odds for a home win between Egypt and Chile.
The Pharaohs have a squad that has already completed many international tournaments. However, 16 of the 20 players are under contract at home, which is of course an advantage in terms of acclimatization. However, this is not a major quality feature in international comparison. Nevertheless, the Pharaohs remain favourites in the opening game of the World Cup on Wednesday.
The squad of Egypt:
🤾♂️ Goal: Hamid, Handawy, El Tayar
🤾♂️ Back: Hassan, Hesham, Khairy, S. El-Deraa, Y. El-Deraa, Kaddah, Zein
🤾♂️ Left winger: El Wakil, Moamen
🤾♂️ Right winger: Samy, Saad, Sanad

Chile – Statistics & current form
In South America, the Chileans have established themselves as the third force behind Brazil and Argentina in recent years. Even on the continental level, the team from Chile is still missing its first title. For the sixth time in a row, La Roja is now qualified for a world championship. Of course, in the world championships, it has never been enough to survive the preliminary round.
Almost all Chileans in Europe under contract
However, the Spanish coach Mateo Garralda has put together a team that may surprise this year. Many actors are under contract in Europe, mainly in Spain. So the Chileans have some top players with them. Emil, Harald and Erwin Feuchtmann, in particular, have earned an international reputation.
- “We are going to the World Cup with great enthusiasm. We want to continue to improve there in order to be well established in the Olympic qualification. ” – Esteban Salinas
In addition, Esteban Salinas is a circle runner who plays for the international top club BM Granollers and has fought many international battles on the circle. However, the South Americans have hardly any match practice. The preparation mainly took place in the training hall. It is therefore difficult to assess the state of La Roja.
The squad of Chile:
🤾♂️ Goal: Barrientos, Garcia, Gonzalez
🤾♂️ Back: Delgado, E. Feuchtmann, Baumann, E. Feuchtmann, Reyes, Codina, Donoso, Munoz, Ayala
🤾♂️ Outside left: Ceballos, H. Feuchtmann, Callejas
🤾♂️ Right winger: Pavez
🤾♂️ District: Frelijj, Salinas, Illesca
🤾♂️ Coach: Garralda

Egypt vs Chile – Direct comparison / H2H balance
Basically, Egypt and Chile only have the opportunity to play a match against each other at the Olympic Games or World Championships. The South Americans, however, have never qualified for the Olympics. For the first time, both teams have been drawn to each other at a World Cup. Up to now, there have been no duels between the two teams.
Egypt vs Chile Betting Predictions and Odds by PicksSoccer Experts
Egypt wants to go far at the home World Cup. However, it is generally difficult for the non-European teams to hold their own against the teams from Europe. On Wednesday, however, the Pharaohs will first face the South Americans from Chile and the betting providers clearly see the African host as the favourite.
After all, Egypt is the reigning African champions, have recently won nine games in a row and will have a home advantage even without spectators. So there is much to be said for placing a tip on the home side in Egypt against Chile. However, the prices for this game outcome are extremely low.
Key facts – Egypt vs Chile tips
Egypt has recently celebrated nine wins in a row.
Chile’s team consists almost entirely of legionaries.
For the first time, Egypt and Chile meet.
In general, betting on a handicap makes more sense in handball. We think that La Roja has improved significantly in recent years and assume that the Chileans will not let themselves be dismantled on Wednesday, especially since the pressure is on the pharaohs. In the match between Egypt and Chile, we decided to assume the odds on a handicap win for the South Americans +8.5 goals.
