National Bank of Egypt are keen to add to their goals scored at their own arena in this upcoming game vs Ghazl El Mehalla.

Insights:
  • Ghazl El Mehalla have the fewest scored goals (26) in Premier League

It's no vacation for neither National nor Ghazl El Mehalla as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Relegation threatens National who should definitely be looking for some points here. Mehalla are struggling to avoid relegation.

National Bank of Egypt form and stats

With 2 Premier League wins, 7 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, National Bank of Egypt are certainly not brimming with confidence.

National Bank of Egypt are returning here after visiting Misr Lel Makasa in a Premier League game and winning with a 5-3 scoreline. Karim Bambo (4) and Ahmed Ali Kamel scored the goal(s). A goal frenzy last time out for National, with a total of 8 goals in the match against Misr Lel Makasa. Fun stuff to watch! What a game it was for Karim Bambo when beating Misr Lel Makasa, applying the finishing touch to four goals!

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Aswan that ended 2-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how National have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won zero times, drawn one and lost zero.

The manager K. Galal will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Al Ittihad in only three days.

National aren't scoring a lot here in the league, with only 14 goals from 15 games. National have conceded 17 in these home matches.

Ghazl El Mehalla form and stats

There's been little loot from Ghazl El Mehalla's travels as they have only collected 14 points from 15 away games in the Premier League. Ghazl El Mehalla only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 5 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Mehalla, who have now gone eleven games without a victory. The ENPPI game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

Mehalla failed to get anything from their last game, a Premier League home match vs El Entag El Harby (placed 17th) that ended with defeat 1-3.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Ceramica Cleopatra that ended 1-1.

Ghazl El Mehalla are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, three draws and one defeat. From a total of five matches.

After this away game Ghazl El Mehalla return home for a Premier League game against Al Mokawloon. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The attacking power of Ghazl El Mehalla when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Ghazl El Mehalla have seen the ball go into their own net 18 times on the road.
