Al Ahly vs Al Ittihad Prediction: The visitors won’t survive the first forty-five minutes

On Tuesday, the Red Devils will face off against Al Ittihad at the Cairo International Stadium. The visitors, who have failed to win their last three games, will draw motivation from their recent home win against Baladiyet El Mahalla to see off a strong opponent. 

Al Ahly (10th)

Last five games: DWLWW

Indeed, the return of Percy Tau and Emam Ashour has brought confidence and enthusiasm to the team. They have now won three consecutive matches, and both have started for Al Ahly. More recently, the Red Devils secured a comfortable (3-0) victory over El Gouna on their ground, making it three consecutive wins in all competitions. 

Al Ahly have amassed twenty-seven points from a combined thirty-three and are fourteen points behind the league leaders. The Red Devils have won four and drawn two games at home in the league this season. 

Al Ittihad (5th)

Last five games: LDDLW

After four games without a breakthrough, the Thagher's Leaders bounced back with a (2-1) victory over Baladiyet El Mahalla. Before the match, Al Ittihad had eight shots from four consecutive games but managed four against the struggling team. Tarek El Ashry has done a great job arriving, and maybe he’ll have to change his style if he wants to play continental football. 

Al Ittihad dropped to fifth on the log, nine points below the league leader, Pyramids. They have won four, lost twice and drawn once over their previous seven away games. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous twenty meetings, Al Ahly have won fifteen while Al Ittihad have won twice and three games ending in a stalemate. The Red Devils are back to winning ways and can’t afford to drop points on their ground. They have won three consecutive matches since the return of Percy Tau and Emam Ashour. At the same time, the visitors have struggled lately, even though they won their most recent game. 

The Red Devils have won seven consecutive games against the visitors and are the favourite to secure the maximum points here. Al Ittihad are vulnerable at the back, and we think they might concede a penalty here; however, we expect Al Ahly to win before the break for 1.82.

We also expect to see more than two goals here for 1.70.

A correct score of (3-0) might surface here for 7.40.

Good luck!
