Expert Betting Tips
It is difficult to trust either of this team looking at how struggling they have been. On the road, Pharco have been a terrible side, and despite El Ismaily being at home, they have not been threatening to their opponents. This should be a competitive encounter in between, but I feel Pharco are doing much better and should be the winning side in this game.
