Season ticket holders at Tanta Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Tanta languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Ismaily will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
The visiting Ismaily played their last game only four days ago, a Premier League match. That game, against Haras El Hodood, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Ismaily.
Tanta form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Tanta have only managed 1 win, 5 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Tanta Stadium. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Tanta to get some points in this home game.
Tanta are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 504 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Islam Fouad).
Tanta faced defeat in their previous match, away at El Geish (0-1). Preceding that match was the home game against Haras El Hodood that was lost 0-1.
There will be little rest for Tanta after this match as they are travelling to Smouha for a Premier League game in only three days.
Tanta have scored 8 league goals here from 10 matches, not a lot. On the other hand, Tanta have conceded 11 goals.
Ismaily form and stats
Playing away, Ismaily have won 3 games, drawn 2 and suffered 4 defeats in the Premier League this season. With three draws in a row for Ismaily the feeling in the team is perhaps one of both relief and disappointment.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Haras El Hodood (placed 10th) in their previous outing. The Premier League match ended in a draw 2-2. A draw for Ismaily before that, at their own venue hosting Wadi Degla (1-1).
A new game in only four days for Ismaily, the Premier League home match versus Al Ittihad. Busy days.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Ismaily as they have only managed to score 7 times from 9 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Ismaily have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Ismaily - Tanta 0-0. H2H stats regardless of arena (last seven matches): Tanta one win, three draws and Ismaily three victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.Tanta missing players
