Pyramids FC form and stats

This stadium, 30 June Air Defence Stadium, has been a fortress for Pyramids FC in the Premier League so far this season with the win-draw-loss statistic 13-3-0. Pyramids FC has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at 30 June Air Defence Stadium. We remember; it was El Daklyeh.

Pyramids FC's previous game was also played at home, ending 4-2 versus El Geish (placed 14th). The home side are looking to build on that result. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Heartbreak before that as Pyramids lost 1-2 at Ceramica Cleopatra's place.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (36 in 16 games), Pyramids FC's attacking play is working. Pyramids FC have only conceded 9 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Al Ahly form and stats

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Al Ahly so far, with 13-2-0 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Premier League statistics. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Al Ahly, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Ahly's last game was the home draw against Haras El Hodood (1-1). Abdelmonem, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.21. Abdelmonem won 8 of 10 duels.

Before that one, a nice away victory 4-1 at Al Mokawloon.

Take note: 11 of the latest 14 league fixtures involving this club have seen only one (or no) team scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting).

The schedule is very tough for Al Ahly now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Premier League game at Al Masry is waiting in only three days.

The Ahly manager Koller has got the team scoring on the road, with 34 away goals in 15 league matches. The Al Ahly defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average ({4 goals} in 15 games).

Head 2 Head

Al Ahly - Pyramids FC 3-0 was the product when this pair of squads previously met, earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Pyramids one win, three draws and Al Ahly six victories.
