An important duel in the bottom section of the Premier League, with both Wadi Degla and El Gounah experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 15th place.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Relegation threatens Degla who should definitely be looking for some points here. El Gounah are struggling to avoid relegation.

El Gounah form and stats
El Gounah, who have the fewest clean sheets (2) away in Premier League, have only collected 11 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 2-5-9 (16 played). The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on R. El Sayed, the Gounah manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
The manager R. El Sayed was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground El-Gouna Stadium. El Gounah suffered a 0-2 loss to Al Masry (placed 9th). That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Tanta.
The attacking power of El Gounah when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 16 league matches away. El Gounah's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 25 goals from these trips.
