Al Mokawloon form and stats

With 1 Premier League win, 7 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Al Mokawloon are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 195 minutes without scoring a league goal. Khaled was the last player to find the net.

Mokawloon's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Ceramica Cleopatra (placed 8th).

Heartbreak before that as Al Mokawloon lost 0-1 at Zamalek's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Al Mokawloon perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Not much happening? In this club's last 11 league games, 10 have had two goals or less.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Mokawloon here at Arab Contractors Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 11 games).
