Ghazl El Mehalla form and stats
2 victories, 6 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Ghazl El Mehalla have to build on here at El Mahalla Stadium in the Premier League. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at El Mahalla Stadium, but a victory now would be sweet for Mehalla.
Ghazl El Mehalla drew their last game, also a home match. Pyramids FC (placed 3rd) was the opponent, 2-2 the score. Before that, Mehalla drew at home versus Smouha.
Ahmed El Nadry was able to secure the draw 2-2 in the game against Pyramids FC after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
The match schedule is unforgiving for Mehalla as they have a new game in only three days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. ENPPI are visiting.
