Al Ittihad vs Ismaily Prediction: The home team won’t lose to the visitors

Al Ittihad will be hopeful of sustaining their four games unbeaten run when they host Ismaily at the Alexandria Stadium on Sunday. The home side suffered defeat in both legs against the visitors in the previous campaign and will be more careful not to tread on the same path this season.

Al Ittihad (6th)

Last five games: LDWWD

The home side have gone four games without a defeat and are now three points from playing in the CAF competition. Al Ittihad have signed some great players who will assist them in the fight for a top-four finish in this campaign. Al Ittihad secured an impressive point on the road against Al Mokawloon as nothing separated them at full-time. Al Ittihad's overall performance has been above average this season, with eight wins, two draws and six defeats.

Al Ittihad have won five, drawn once and lost twice at home this season.

Ismaily (17th)

Last five games: LLDDW

It’s so strange to see Ismaily rock the bottom of the charts after recruiting almost two starting eleven at the beginning of the season. New coach Mido is doing a great job, but it seems inexperienced players are jeopardising his hard work. Ismaily have managed just two wins since the season's commencement, and they recently secured the second victory against El Daklyeh. Darwish Castle scored three goals for the first time in the division as they thrashed the newly promoted side at home.

Ismaily have won once, drawn four and lost three times away from home this season.

Expert Betting Tips

Over the previous twenty meetings, Ismaily have won seven while Al Ittihad have recorded seven victories and five matches have ended in a share of the spoils. Al Ittihad head here as the favourite after enduring Al Mokawloon threats on the road a few days back. They have signed some great players, and we are backing them to secure at least a point and score more than once here for 189.

The visitors are still not good enough but might tighten up since this is a top game; bet on BTTS for 2.20.

Expect the home side to secure a win here for 1.91.

Good luck!
