Al Masry are enjoying their 3rd, while Al Ittihad are loitering 4 points behind in the table. Can they cut the gap?
- Al Masry have not yet lost a game.
- Al Ittihad have the most conceded goals in the second half (8) in Premier League
It's no vacation for neither Al Masry nor Al Ittihad 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 Masry form and stats
Al Masry must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three Premier League games here at Borg El Arab Stadium.
Masry are returning here after visiting Pharco in a Premier League game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Hamoudi scored the goal(s).
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Misr Lel Makasa in a game that was won 3-2.The Masry fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. Masry have conceded 4 in these home matches.
Al Ittihad form and stats
The Premier League season is young and Al Ittihad have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.
Ittihad's last game was the home draw against Ceramica Cleopatra (4-4). Drawing 4-4 against Ceramica Cleopatra after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager Hussein needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. As you can tell from the result, the match against Ceramica Cleopatra was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today?
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Pharco.Ittihad have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. Ittihad have conceded 7 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's four Masry victories, four draws and two Al Ittihad wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, seven matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
