The Pharaohs are heading for the round of 32 after Mohamed Salah fired them to their first World Cup win last time out.
But the North African side won't want to take their foot off the gas or underestimate their gutsy opponents.
Iran are unbeaten at the World Cup, earning draws against New Zealand and Belgium, but likely need at least a point to progress.
Both sides may be keeping an eye on Belgium v New Zealand, which kicks off simultaneously, as Group G wraps up.
Radio Times has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Egypt v Iran on TV and online.
