This could be an interesting match as Ismaily have their presumed home advantage while Al Mokawloon are ahead 17 points in the Premier League table.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Premier League. That game was an away game at Al Ahly, so at least Ismaily are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Ismaily form and stats

4 victories, 4 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Ismaily have to build on here at Ismaïlia Stadium in the Premier League.

The fans are hoping that Ismaily will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the Premier League game against Al Ahly (placed 1st). Before that game, the 4-0 home victory against Masr.

The penalty miss from Omar El Wahsh in the defeat against Al Ahly was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Ismaily have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won three, drawn five and lost four.

Ismaily are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 13 games. On the other hand, Ismaily have conceded 16 goals.

Mokawloon won their last game, 3-2 versus Haras El Hodood played at home. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Wadi Degla that ended 1-1.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager E. El Nahhas when Taher Mohamed scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 73rd minute. Late drama in the previous game, when Taher Mohamed scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time to defeat Haras El Hodood.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 13 similar matches played by Mokawloon in our archives, and the results are: six wins for Al Mokawloon, four draws and three defeats.
