Al Ahly vs Al Hilal Omdurman Prediction: The Red Devils will secure the ticket to the next round

The most successful side in the history of this tournament will square off against Al Hilal Omurdman in what seems to be one of their most important games of the season at the Cairo International Stadium tomorrow. Al Ahly must win here to secure the ticket to the knockout stage, while the visitors need just a point to advance to the next round.

Last five games: LDWLW

The Red Devils have had one of the worst starts to this tournament; they have lost twice, drawn once and won two in the last five matches. More recently, in this competition, Al Ahly obtained all the points against a lowly-ranked Coton Sports when they put four past the home side. The result left them with seven points from a combined fifteen, and they are now three points behind second-placed Al Hilal.

Al Ahly won once and drew a game at home in this competition.

The Blue Waves are enjoying their time in this tournament, having picked up ten points from the last five matches. Nobody saw this coming after their defeat at the beginning of this competition. Al Hilal were a dark horse in this tournament but are on the verge of knocking out the most successful team in CAF history.

Al Hilal must win here or draw to secure the ticket to the next round.

Head-to-head statistics:

Al Ahly and Al Hilal Omdurman have faced each other five times in the CAF Champions League, with Al Ahly winning three times, Al Hilal winning once, and two games ending in a tie. In terms of goals, Al Ahly scored four goals in the five games played against Al Hilal Omdurman, while Al Hilal Omdurman have managed to score three goals.

The Red Devils will be looking to maintain their unbeaten home run in this tournament, while Al Hilal Omdurman will be hoping to cause an upset and secure their place in the knockout stages. This promises to be an exciting game between two quality teams, but Al Ahly need this game more than the visitors. Al Hilal will be here to defend and capitalise on any defensive lapses from Al Ahly, and that makes me think we are going to witness more than two goals here for 2.30.

It won’t be a boring game for any reason, and we expect a correct score of (2-1) here for 5.44.

Cairo International Stadium isn’t the right atmosphere for any visiting side, especially in situations like this. Al Ahly will secure a halftime victory here for 1.83.

Good luck!
