Argentina play aggressively, and given the stakes of this round of 16 clash, Lasheen should be on the receiving end of some cheap challenges.<\/p>\n<p>            Mostafa Zico to Commit 2+ Fouls<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zico has been one of his nation\u2019s most consistent performers this World Cup, and like Argentina\u2019s Lautaro Martinez, he does not give his opponents a yard of space, looking to force his opposing defenders into a mistake.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This selection has landed in each of his last three starts for Egypt, against the likes of Australia, Iran and New Zealand.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also racked up four tackles in that period, again highlighting his work rate. Egypt will not have a lot of the ball for periods of this game, and Zico will be leading the press from the front.<\/p>\n<p>            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"991\" height=\"624\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/6228700-PP-World-Cup-26-Free-BB-on-all-England-games-Banner-Templates-991x624-IRL.webp\" alt=\"England Free Bet Builder\" class=\"wp-image-268938\"  \/>Emam Ashour to have 1+ Shots on Target<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Emam Ashour has really stepped up in an Egyptian attacking line that boasts the likes of Mo Salah and Omar Marmoush.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was the star last time out against Australia, scoring the only goal from open play, and has five of his country\u2019s 14 shots in 120 minutes. He scored against Belgium in the group stages, making him his nation\u2019s top scorer this World Cup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Argentina will be Egypt\u2019s toughest match-up so far, and if anyone is to step up here for the underdogs, Ashour looks the likely candidate for a shot on target at this decent price.<\/p>\n<p>            Football tips for Argentina v Egypt<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mohanad Lasheen to be fouled 2+ times<br \/>Mostafa Zico to commit 2+ fouls<br \/>Emam Ashour to have 1+ shots on target<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Bet Builder with these selections pays approximately\u00a014\/1\u00a0with Paddy Power.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.paddypower.com\/bet?action=addLegs&amp;leg=927.390978032|92544748|SIMPLE_SELECTION|&amp;leg=927.390978026|42319314|SIMPLE_SELECTION|&amp;leg=927.390978104|40279790|SIMPLE_SELECTION|\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.paddypower.com\/bet?action=addLegs&amp;leg=927.390978032|92544748|SIMPLE_SELECTION|&amp;leg=927.390978026|42319314|SIMPLE_SELECTION|&amp;leg=927.390978104|40279790|SIMPLE_SELECTION|\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">CLICK OR TAP HERE TO ADD IT TO YOUR BETSLIP<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*All prices are bang up to date with our snazzy widgets, while odds in copy are accurate at time of publishing but subject to change.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paddypower.com\/football\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Tap here for PP.com\u2019s latest football odds<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.paddypower.com\/guides\/2020\/06\/18\/the-paddy-power-guide-to-responsible-gambling-everything-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Paddy Power Guide To Safer Gambling \u2013 Everything You Need To Know<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/news.paddypower.com\/world-cup-predictor\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1430\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/World-cup-predictor-banner-1430x194-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267149\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A place in the quarter-finals is up for grabs and social media\u2019s top tipster has three fancies in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":537559,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[61,60,112],"class_list":["post-537558","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=537558"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537558\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/537559"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=537558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=537558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=537558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
