With the edgy opening match out of the way it’s time for the second Premier League battle of the season. Ceramica Cleopatra are eager to welcome Ismaily in front of their home following.
Ismaily could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago.
Ceramica Cleopatra form and stats
In the previous season, Ceramica Cleopatra's league statistics were 8 wins, 15 draws and 11 losses, providing 10th position in the Premier League. Over these 34 matches they scored 41 goals and gave away 46. Playing as the host team in the last season Ceramica Cleopatra managed 3-7-7 (win-draw-lost) with 19 goals and 24 conceded.
Cleopatra manager H. Shaaban and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus El Gounah (placed 11th) in the Premier League.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Ismaily (2-3).The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Cleopatra have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won four, drawn three and lost two.
The manager H. Shaaban will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Misr Lel Makasa in only four days.
Ismaily form and stats
Let's have a look at how Ismaily performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 11th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 11 draws and 13 defeats. In total they scored 42 and conceded 44 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 6 and lost 6 with 22/19 goals scored/conceded.
Home advantage was not enough for Ismaily in their previous game, as they lost their Premier League-match, hosting Al Ahly, 0-4. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Al Ahly was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.
Prior to that result Ismaily won their away game at Ceramica Cleopatra. The scoreline was 3-2.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Ismaily playing away and similar expectations, we found 15 relevant matches. Results were six Ismaily wins, three draws and six defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Ismaily now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at National Bank of Egypt is waiting in only four days.
Head 2 Head
