Al Ittihad form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Al Ittihad's two home games in the Premier League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Alexandria Stadium.

Attia was the last player to score a league goal for Ittihad and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Al Ittihad haven't scored in 270 minutes.

Al Ittihad faced defeat in their previous match, away at Al Ahly (0-3).

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Coca-Cola (0-1).

This is expected to be a close game, with Al Ittihad perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Al Ittihad as a small favourite), we find 17 games. Ittihad has won 7 of these, drawn 6 and lost 4.

The manager Manojlovic will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Smouha in only four days.

Early season league goal statistics from Al Ittihad's 2 home games: {2 goals}, 2 conceded.
