Sed Elmahla form and stats

Sed Elmahla's results here at El Mahalla Stadium in the Second League: Group C have been very modest with 1 victory, 6 draws and 7 defeats. The home stadium (El Mahalla Stadium) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Sed Elmahla it's been a house of straw as the last four games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

Elmahla are returning here after visiting Egy Salloum and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.

Preceding that match was the home game against Dekernes that was lost 0-3.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 23 goals have been conceded. Sed Elmahla has at home met teams with this table position (low), four times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 3 of 4 times.

El Raja form and stats

El Raja have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Second League: Group C, after 0-3-11 (14 played). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for El Raja, who have now gone 28 games without a victory. The El Mansura game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

El Raja might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. El Magd proved too strong as El Raja slumped to a 0-8 defeat in front of their own fans. Raja lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-8 beating and focus on this one.

Preceding that, the 0-7 home loss versus El Hamam.

El Raja are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 14 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. El Raja are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 2 goals in these matches.
