Modern Sport vs El Gaish Prediction: Another low-scoring contest ahead

At Al-Salam Stadium Cairo, Modern Sport will play El Gaish in round 13 of the Egyptian Premier League. The two teams are going through a number of struggling moments this season in the Premier League. Will there be a winner in this one? Below, I will provide match previews and offer best betting opportunities. 

Modern Sport

Modern Sport are coming off a league defeat to Ghazl El Mahallah and will hope to do better here. In a game that ended 2-1, Modern Sport held their opponent to a draw before the break with Hossam Hassan levelling the score after Gazar had put his side in the lead. However, an 82nd-minute Mohamed Ben Hammouda strike was enough to see this team take maximum points, handing Modern Sport their fourth defeat in their last five matches. In that run, Modern Sport's lone victory was against Zamalek, ending 1-0 in a shocking encounter. Heading into this game, the home team has one of the fewest points accumulated in the league this season alongside ENPPI, leaving them at the bottom of the standings.

El Gaish

El Gaish are coming off a league encounter against El Gouna, which they drew. In a goalless encounter, El Gaish had 53 percent of the possession and attempted 14 shots while failing to net any of the five that were on target. However, El Gaish have an unbeaten run of four matches with that result, defeating El Ismaily and El Gaish, while drawing Pharco. Away from home, El Gaish have won their last two league matches. This season, the visitors have accumulated 16 points from 12 league matches. In the standings, El Gaish sit 12th, scoring nine goals while conceding 12. 

Expert Betting Tips

Modern Sport are nowhere near ready, and their consistent struggles are evidence of this. While El Gaish have not exerted dominance in their matches this season, being on the road will not be an easy task. Looking at the quality of both teams, both in attack and defence, I do not see a clear winner at full time. This should be a tight one and with few offensive approaches expected from both teams, a bet on a few goals while these two teams settle for a draw at full time is expected. 

Our first option is under 1.5 goals with odds at 2.07 on 1Xbet

Our second option is a full-time draw with odds at 2.70 on Bet365

Our last option is first half under 0.5 goals with odds at 2.00 on Betway
