Ghazl El Mahallah vs El Ismaily Prediction: A close contest ahead

The match between Ghazl El Mahallah and El Ismaily in the first round of the eighth edition of the Egypt League Cup will take place at the El Mahalla Stadium. The team that will be playing at home has failed to win any of their previous six matches, while the club that will be traveling to El Ismaily has seen each of their previous four matches result in a draw.

Ghazl El Mehalla has no previous victories to their name in any of their previous matches. On the other hand, they suffered defeats against Haras El Hodood, Al Mokawloon, Aswan, and El Daklyeh, and their match against Ismaily resulted in a stalemate. Ghazl El Mehalla was able to score ten goals despite allowing four goals to be scored against them in those matchups. During the current league season, Ghazl El Mehalla has scored a goal on average once every match. In terms of disciplinary actions, the home team has been issued 35 yellow cards but none of the more serious red cards, and they have committed an average of 0.52 fouls per game. This season, Ghazl El Mehalla has had an average possession of the ball of 58.4 percent, which indicates that they are good at keeping the ball.

El Ismaily's previous games resulted in one victory against El Daklyeh and four draws against Aswan, Al Ittihad, Ghazl El Mehalla, and Future FC. El Ismaily was only able to score five goals while giving up three in those contests. During the current league season, El Ismaily has been responsible for an average of 0.7 goals scored per game. In terms of disciplinary actions, the home team was given 35 yellow cards and one red card, which resulted in an average of 0.65 fouls committed per game that they participated in. El Ismaily's average possession percentage of 48.67% during this season suggests that they are unable to properly control the ball.

The fact that neither of the two sides can seem to find a way to win their matches demonstrates a distinct lack of strength in either their attack or their defense. Nonetheless, despite the fact that they are not playing on their home turf, the team that is traveling still has a superior chance of winning this match, and we anticipate that they will do so. Because neither of these sides has any especially talented players, we do not anticipate that there will be a lot of goals scored.
