Al Mokawloon vs El Gouna Prediction: The hosts will maintain their decent home run against their opponent

Following their failure to remain in the league, Al Mokawloon will play for pride when they lock horns against El Gouna at the Arab Contractors Stadium on Sunday. Both teams have had a difficult campaign, but the hosts look like they won't bow out without a fight.

Last five games: DWDLD

Despite just a defeat in five matches, Mohammed Odeh's men returned to Division Two. They head here with a (1-1) stalemate on the road against Ismaily. Al Mokawloon who have scored in ten of their last eleven matches, have improved in front of goal, and they’ll be determined to keep up with such momentum. The hosts have had a poor season, as they are just seven points above the bottom team on the log. Al Mokawloon have picked up twenty-seven points since the beginning of this campaign, losing seventeen, winning five, and sharing the spoils in eleven games. Al Mokawloon have won twice, drawn five, and lost nine at home this season. 

Last five games: LDDLW

After thirteen games without a breakthrough, Alaa Abdelaal's men secured a (2-1) victory over Baladiyet El Mahalla. Before then, they lost against Zamalek and were away from home. 

The guests have been inconsistent lately, as they dropped to the twelfth spot on the log. El Gouna picked up thirty-six points from a possible ninety-nine and are now nine points above the relegation zone. El Gouna have won three, lost seven, and drawn three times away from home this season. 

Al Mokawloon have won ten while El Gouna have managed six victories and four games ending in a tie over their previous twenty meetings. Both teams have nothing to play for again this season, but we think the hosts will be determined to finish well on their ground. At the same time, the guests will be keen to at least walk away with a point at least.

Al Mokawloon have never lost against El Gouna at home since 2010, and we believe they’ll maintain the run here.

We also expect both teams to settle for a halftime stalemate here for 2.00.

Al Mokawloon will be at their best here, and we think they’ll get a goal before the break for 2.00.

Good luck!
