After the first set of fixtures it's Al Masry - Smouha 1-1 in points. Who will triumph in this second Premier League game of the season?

Al Masry have less rest than Smouha in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Premier League game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Ghazl El Mehalla, so at least Masry are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Masry manager M. Chaabani and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Ghazl El Mehalla (placed 13th) in the Premier League. The hometeam coach M. Chaabani made a successful contribution in the game against Ghazl El Mehalla, bringing on Mohamed Antar who scored the equalizer in the 1-1 draw.

Ahead of that match, Al Masry won a home game hosting URA (1-0).

There will be little rest for Masry after this match as they are travelling to Coca-Cola for a Premier League game in only four days.

Smouha form and stats

Let's have a look at how Smouha performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 4th position in the league table after playing out 12 victories, 18 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 55 and conceded 42 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 9 and lost 1 with 26/16 goals scored/conceded.

Smouha's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Al Ittihad that finished 4-4. It looked so good for Smouha vs Al Ittihad, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 3-0 lead was turned into a 4-4 draw. As you can tell from the result, the match against Al Ittihad was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today?

The game before that, in the Egypt Cup, was lost at home, a 1-3 defeat against Pyramids FC.

A new game in only four days for Smouha, the Premier League home match versus El Sharqia Dokhan. Busy days.

Head 2 Head

Stats for the former ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Masry, four draws and three wins for Smouha. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
