Al Ittihad vs Pharco Prediction: This cup tie will end in a home win

Al Ittihad will square off with Pharco at the Alexandria Stadium on Monday. Both sides will meet for the second time this season, and we expect an entertaining game here.

Zoraida Manojlovic's men head here having gone eight games without a defeat. They are 4th on the log, with three points behind Pyramids in the third spot.

Al Ittihad have won the Egyptian League Cup six times and will be confident of advancing to the next round against a powerful opponent.

Tarek El Ashry has turned his team into a ball-playing side and are undefeated in the last five games since his appointment. Pharco will not be fighting for relegation this season and are a strong contender for the CAF Confederation competition.

Pharco haven’t won any major trophies before and are the underdog here.

The last three meetings have seen Al Ittihad with two wins and Pharco recording a win. Their previous two games have seen a total of under 2.5 goals. The home side are in a strong position on the table, and we are not certain they’ll risk playing all their star players for this encounter; bet on Al Ittihad win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 2.20.

Both sides might settle for a halftime draw here for 1.83.

Al Ittihad should be able to secure all the points at home for 2.25.

Good luck!
