There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Premier League table so far. Here's the Al Ittihad - Al Masry latest:
It's no vacation for neither Ittihad nor Al Masry as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Al Ittihad can neither be promoted or relegated from Premier League. Masry is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
Al Ittihad form and stats
Al Ittihad have played 15 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-8-4 (wins-draws-losses). With ten home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Al Ittihad fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Masr game long ago, can be stopped today.
In their previous game, the manager T. Youssef led his Ittihad to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Smouha. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Borg El Arab Stadium. In the match before that, Al Ittihad hosted El Geish and drew the game 2-2.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Ittihad here at Borg El Arab Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (14 from 15 games). On the other hand, Ittihad have conceded 15 goals.
Al Masry form and stats
The visitors are W7-D2-L6 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League. Masry love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
253 minutes! That's how long the Masry goalkeeper Ahmed Massoud and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Karim El Eraki and Ahmed Gomaa scored in Masry's previous match, the home game against Ismaily that ended 2-0. Preceding that game was the away victory against El Gounah with the score of 2-0.
The visitors have scored 14 goals from 15 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (13 so far).
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Al Masry - Ittihad 0-1 earlier this season. Last ten meetings between the teams: Al Ittihad won two, Al Masry won four and four draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, eight matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
