Al Masry and Ismaily have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Premier League.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.

Relegation threatens Masry who should definitely be looking for some points here. Ismaily are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

Al Masry form and stats

Al Masry's results here at Borg El Arab Stadium in the Premier League have been very modest with 2 victories, 7 draws and 6 defeats. With nine home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Masry fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Smouha game long ago, can be stopped today.

Masry are returning here after visiting El Gounah in a Premier League game and winning with a 2-0 scoreline. Hassan Ali and Omar Kamal scored the goal(s). Ahead of that match, Masry lost 0-1 at home to Zamalek.

There will be little rest for Al Masry after this match as they are travelling to Al Ittihad for a Premier League game in only three days.

Al Masry aren't scoring a lot here at Borg El Arab Stadium in the league, with only 14 goals from 15 games. Masry's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 19 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Ismaily form and stats

6-2-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Ismaily in their Premier League matches away. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Ismaily, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Two travels in a row for Ismaily, whose manager H. Ferreira could celebrate last time after the Premier League win against El Entag El Harby. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Smouha.

The attacking power of Ismaily when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Ismaily have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Ismaily - Masry 1-3. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - six - two (Masry wins - draws - Ismaily wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven had two or less.
