Smouha are coming off a 3-0 thrashing defeat at the hands of Pyramids, and this team will hope for a better result in this game. However, prior encounters to that defeat saw Smouha go three matches without a defeat. In those matches, Smouha defeated Al Ittihad and La Viena while they drew Pharco. In the meantime, Smouha have won four of their last five home matches, with their lone defeat being against ZED. Into this encounter, Smouha have 35 points accumulated from 24 matches this season, positioning them 8th in the league standings.
El Daklyeh
El Daklyeh are off a cup encounter against ZED, and after a 1-1 draw at full time, they lost after extra time. In that game, Ziad Tarek’s goal gave them the lead in the 48th minute of the match before Mostafa Ziko’s 90+6 minutes saw the regular time ended 1-1. However, a 102-minute goal by Shady Hussein in the extra time was the only highlight of the remaining match. Heading into this game, El Daklyeh has lost three of their last five matches, two others coming against El Ismaily and Baladiyat El Mahalla. However, they picked up a draw against El Gouna while defeating Arab Contractors.
Expert Betting Tips
El Daklyeh, either against a strong or weak side, has played below par, and this matchup does not look good for them looking at the winning odds. On the other hand, Smouha have not been consistent, but their home form has been solid. I do not expect any surprising, interesting play from the visiting El Daklyeh, and while Smouha is expected to be dominant, a win for them with goals is a good option.
