Ghazl El Mahallah vs ENPPI Prediction: The home team will secure a hard-fought victory

At El Mahalla Stadium, Ghazl El Mahallah will play ENPPI in round 16 of the Egyptian Premier League. The two teams have been struggling to live up to standard this season. I will preview this game and offer predictions. 

Ghazl El Mahallah

Ghazl El Mahallah played ZED FC the previous time out and ended on the losing end. In a game that ended 2-0, this team conceded in each half, with goals from Maata Magassa and Messi being enough for their opponent to take maximum points. However, Ghazl El Mahallah have faced defeat in three of their last five matches, two against Pharco and Al Ahly in encounters that ended 3-2 and 1-0, respectively. Heading into this game, Ghazl El Mahallah have conceded 22 goals in fifteen matches, while scoring 12.

ENPPI

ENPPI will hope to keep things running after a decent performance against Smouha the previous time out. In a win encounter, Ahmed El Agouz's strike from the spot in the second half was enough to secure maximum points for this team. However, ENPPI now boasts of an unbeaten match of three. In that run, this team drew Ceramica Cleopatra and Al Ittihad. Away from home, ENPPI have not had luck in recent matches, going winless in ten consecutive games. This team has 12 points from 15 matches, scored 10 goals and conceded 15. 

Expert Betting Tips

Ghazl El Mahallah are not at their best and their inconsistencies is on a top level. However, ENPPI have shown character in the past weeks with an unbeaten run of performances. Yet, I feel at home; Ghazl El Mahallah will hope to turn the tables and take their chances against a struggling opponent like them. Also, while the two teams do not have a solid offensive line, I expect this game to end with few goals. In the meantime, while the two teams are expected to focus on defensive games, I feel the deadlock won’t be broken before halftime.
