On Wednesday, the Red Devils will face off against El Gouna at the Cairo International Stadium. Al Ahly have been inconsistent this season, and they only perform well on their home turf. They’ll approach this game without some of their key players, and considering they have a very tough game three days later, you might want to tread carefully.

The Red Devils moved to the top of the table following their hard-fought victory over Smouha SC. Goals from Afsha and Emam Ashour were enough to hand them all the points on their home turf. It wasn’t their best display, as they conceded twice, and their opponent hit the posts two times; however, they got the job done regardless. Just after the game, Al Ahly proceeded to secure their spot in the knockout phase of the CAF Champions League, coming back from a goal down to secure a (1-3) victory on the road. The Red Devils presently sit first on the log, scoring eleven and conceding three.
Al Ahly remain unbeaten in the league this campaign, fifteen points from a combined twenty-seven.
Al Ahly have won twice and drawn a game at home in the league this campaign.
El Gouna (17th)
Last five games: LDWLL
Alaa Abdelaal's men have been below par since the league began as they march here with back to back losses. After a decent defensive performance that almost lasted for the entire game, El Gouna were stunned by Pyramids FC in the 99th minute. It was a painful defeat as they were seconds away from picking up a point against the second-best side in the league. Before then, El Gouna also lost narrowly against the newly promoted Petrojet team, conceding once in the 95th minute.
El Gouna have managed two wins in all competitions over their previous twenty-three games.
El Gouna have drawn twice and lost once on the road this season.
Expert Betting Tips
Al Ahly have won twelve, while El Gouna FC recorded one victory and seven games ending in a share of the spoils over their previous twenty meetings. The Red Devils head here without three key players, and their squad looks very thin, especially after Percy Tau left for a Qatar club. Al Ahly also have a big game against Orlando Pirates on Saturday. Even though they have qualified, they’ll be keen to maintain their decent home record in the continental championship. They’ll face off against an El Gouna side who have been defensively solid lately despite back to back losses.
Al Ahly will feature most of their fringe players whom I think are also capable of getting something away from this game. I will actually advise you to be careful here, as this game could probably end in a tie or produce less than two goals.
I’ll settle for a win and under 3.5 goals for the hosts, as I’m not sure this game will produce goals for 1.70 at (Betway).
I also think both teams might settle for a halftime stalemate here for 2.30 at (1xbet). My reason here is because El Gouna's last three games have produced goals after the 85th minute.
This game might produce more goals after the break for 2.07 at (Bet365).
Good luck!
