Smouha face off with visiting rivals Zamalek at Borg El Arab Stadium in this Premier League game on Sunday.
Our tips, poll and stats for Smouha v Zamalek can all be found here - along with the latest match odds.
Smouha are hoping to win again following a 0-1 Premier League victory vs El Mokawloon.
The only player to score from Smouha was Hossam Hassan (43').
An interesting theme in more recent Smouha games is the number of nil scores.
From their prior 6 clashes before this one, in 5 of them a wager on both teams scoring would have been a loser.
Zamalek come into this match following a 1-0 Premier League win to defeat National Bank of Egypt in their previous outing.
The only scorer from Zamalek was Ahmed Sayed (45').
A series of reliable displays by the Zamalek defenders has resulted in the number of goals theyโve conceded amounting to 4 from their last 6 outings combined. In that time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 9. That trend isnโt assured to be continued into this next game, though.
A look at their prior head-to-head clashes stretching back to 06/05/2021 tells us that Smouha have won 1 of these and Zamalek 5, with the number of drawn matches being 0.
A combined total of 19 goals were produced between them throughout the course of those matches, with 5 for The Blue Wave and 14 being from The Royal Team. The average number of goals per game works out to 3.17.
The last league encounter featuring these clubs was Premier League match day 4 on 21/10/2023 which finished with the scoreline of Zamalek 5-1 Smouha.
The Smouha manager Hossam Hassan has zero fitness concerns to speak of ahead of this game owing to a fully healthy squad available to choose from.
Zamalek has not got a full squad to pick from. Mahmoud El Wensh (Cruciate ligament tear), Mostafa El Zenary (Muscle fatigue), Mostafa Shalaby (Muscle fatigue) and Mohamed Abdelshafi (Cruciate ligament tear) wonโt be making appearances.
We think that Smouha will have a tough ask to hit the back of the net against this Zamalek side who will likely win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.
We therefore fancy a good battle with a 0-1 advantage for Zamalek at the end of the 90.
It should be a good one.
