Argentina v Egypt Betting Odds: Holders favourites to qualify

Here are the latest betting odds for the last 16 fixture between Argentina and Egypt at the 2026 World Cup.

Holders Argentina made an impressive start to their World Cup campaign as they won all three group games to reach the last 32 in style.

Lionel Scaloni's side then suffered a real scare in their first game of the knockout stages as they took 120 minutes to finally overcome a Cape Verde team that had become one of the stories of the tournament so far.

Lionel Messi has shined on the world stage once again - scoring seven goals in four games and moving clear at the top of the all-time World Cup goalscoring charts.

As for their next opponents, Egypt have already made history this summer and are unbeaten heading into this last 16 clash.

Egypt secured their first ever World Cup victory with a 3-1 victory over New Zealand and after making it through to the knockout stages, they beat Australia in a dramatic penalty shootout to extend their stay in the tournament.
