An important duel in the bottom section of the Premier League, with both El Geish and Tanta experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 16th and the visitors in 17th place.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago.
El Geish form and stats
El Geish's results here at Gehaz El Reyada Stadium in the Premier League have been very modest with 2 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. The last three games played by Geish, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.
An away draw last time out for El Geish, facing Pyramids FC in a game that ended 2-2. Preceding that game was the away draw at Al Mokawloon that finished 1-1.
A disappointing finish for Geish in their match versus Pyramids FC as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Geish as they have a new game in only four days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Smouha are visiting.
El Geish has scored 9 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. El Geish have conceded 12 in these home matches.
Tanta form and stats
There's been little loot from Tanta's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 10 away games in the Premier League. Tanta only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 5 draws.
Tanta aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 414 league minutes without a goal. Islam Fouad was the last player to find the net.
Tanta might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Haras El Hodood proved too strong as Tanta slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Tanta Stadium. Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting Pyramids FC's place.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Tanta as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. Tanta's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 16 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
Tanta - Geish 0-0 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Last seven meetings between the teams: Geish won two, Tanta won zero and five draws. one game with over 2,5 goals, six matches with two goals or less.El Geish missing players
