Hungary vs Egypt. Match Prediction

Hungary qualified for the Olympic Games at the 2024 Olympic qualifying tournament, finishing second in the standings.
This is the team's ninth participation in the Olympics since Berlin 1936 and the first since London 2012. Hungary has not won a single medal, but has lost the bronze medal match four times (1980, 1988, 2004, 2012).

Their only international medal is silver at the 1986 World Cup, where they lost to Yugoslavia in the final. Most recently, they finished fifth at the 2024 European Championships.

Egypt qualified for the Games after beating Algeria in the final of the 2024 African Championship, where they were the host nation. This will be the ninth Olympic appearance for a team from the Black Continent; their best result was Tokyo 2020, where they finished fourth, losing in the bronze medal match to Spain.

They are one of the most successful African handball teams, with 21 medals in the African Continental Championships since 1979, including nine gold, and are the reigning champions of three consecutive tournaments since 2020.
