Expert Betting Tips

Al Ittihad have won once and drawn two matches over their previous three meetings. Zed FC are one of the most dangerous sides in the division, and they might secure the continental spot if they maintain their momentum. At the same time, Al Ittihad are battling with injuries and are extremely vulnerable at the back. They have a decent record on the road, but we think they won’t be able to contain the attacking threats of Dilson, Mostafa Saad, and Banouby. 

We expect Zed FC to take advantage of their inconsistent visitors for 1.71.

This game might end in a home halftime victory for 3.00.

Al Ittihad have scored in each of their last four matches away from home and we expect them to at least get a goal here.

Good luck!
