Masr hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 11 points and a 18th position in the Premier League table. Visiting Smouha holds 8th place with 21 pts.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Premier League match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at El Geish.
Masr form and stats
2-3-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Masr so far this season. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Masr with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Tanta game, 40 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Masr, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
The fans are hoping that Masr will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the Premier League game against El Geish (placed 13th). Ahead of that match, Masr lost 1-2 at home to Pyramids FC.
Masr were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
There will be little rest for Masr after this match as they are travelling to El Gounah for a Premier League game in only three days.
Masr aren't scoring a lot here at Cairo Military Academy Stadium in the league, with only 7 goals from 8 games. 9 goals have been conceded.
Smouha form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Smouha so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 0-7-1 (win-draw-lose). The Smouha manager H. Sedki is a generous human being, having led his team to four draws in a row during the last 31 days. Two points from the last two away games for Smouha, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Smouha's last game was the home draw against Misr Lel Makasa (1-1). Before that, Smouha travelled to Al Ittihad and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Pyramids FC in just three days.
The attacking power of Smouha when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 8 league matches away. As opposed to that, Smouha have seen the ball go into their own net 8 times on the road.
