Cape Verde vs Egypt Team News
Cape Verde
Cape Verde cruised to a 3-0 win over Mozambique on matchday two in Group B to seal their spot in the next round of AFCON. Head Coach Pedro Leitão Brito could choose to rest one or two of his players in what is essentially a dead rubber for Cape Verde on Monday.
Predicted Lineup for Cape Verde: Vozinha – Moreira, Costa, Pico, Paulo – Duarte, Pina, Monteiro – Mendes, Babe, Cabral
Egypt
Egypt lost Mohamed Salah to – who is the biggest star in their squad – injury in their 2-2 draw with Ghana on matchday two and the Liverpool attacker’s absence will be hard felt if he is forced to sit out the rest of the tournament. Mostafa Fati could replace Salah on the right of the Egyptian attack.
Predicted Lineup for Egypt: Shenawy – Kamal, Hegazy, Abdelmonem, Hamdy – Fathy, Elneny, Fati, Ashour, Marmoush – Mohamed
Confirmed lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to Watch – Bebe
Former Manchester United winger Bebe starred at centre-forward for Cape Verde against Mozambique last time out when he hit the contest’s opening goal. The 33-year-old also rattled the woodwork with another effort and his ferocious shooting power could be a feature of Monday’s fixture against Egypt.
