A look at our well-researched tips for your winnings.

Al Ahly (3rd)

Last five matches: WLWWD

The Red Eagles have been playing poorly in recent matches despite their good form guide. Although they have picked up ten from fifteen points in the last few games, however, looking at their performances, especially the most recent against Al Mokawloon on match day 27, they were so poor they couldn’t convert any of their twenty one shots at goals.

Due to their poor performance, the management have promoted four players from their academy to save their season. Anything is still possible this season, however, trailing the league's leader by eleven points with two outstanding matches is a huge Mountain to climb.

Al Ahly are the best home team this season with ten wins and two draws, they have also scored the most goals and conceded the fewest.

Pharco (8th)

Last five matches: LDDWL

With two losses, two draws and a win in the last five games, Pharco are 8th on the log with thirty-five points in twenty-eight games. Pharco has drawn eleven games this season while winning eight and splitting points in eight games.

Their tactical approach is to not lose no matter what and they hardly conceded more than a goal. They were beaten by El Gaish on matchday 27; they started sloppily and conceded a penalty in the 21st minute, however, they try to correct their mistake but failed as the visitors carted off all the points.

Pharco have won three, lost three and drawn seven in the last thirteen away games. They have scored the fewest goals (8) and conceded the fewest goals (6) in those games.

Expert Betting Tips

Al Ahly are the only team to have scored more than three goals against them this season, and that's the only match they have played together. 

Al Ahly are not well-motivated heading into this game, they have been below par and we are not sure they will get the win here, especially considering the visitor's defensive play. Bet on Al Ahly wins or draw and under 3.5 goals for 1.60.

We don't expect many goals here; bet on the total of under 2.5 goals for 1.80.

A halftime draw for 2.34 might occur.
