National Bank of Egypt FC vs Al Ittihad SC Prediction: Both teams will be pleased with a point apiece

National Bank of Egypt FC will hope to secure a back to back win when they face off against Al Ittihad at the Cairo International Stadium on Friday. The guests who have failed to win any of their previous six away league games will be keen to pick up all the points against the hosts. 

National Bank of Egypt FC (5th)

Last five games: LWDDW

Tarek Moustafa's men have improved massively this season, heading here with another win on the road. They have been one of the most impressive and aggressive sides of this season. They scored four goals against a solid opponent while conceding once away from home. 

It has been tough for National Bank of Egypt FC this season, as they haven’t had the easiest schedule. Facing formidable teams like Zamalek, Pyramids, Al Ahly, Future, and Ceramica can make things quite tricky. Understandably, they’re feeling the pressure with such demanding fixtures. National Bank of Egypt FC have picked up twenty-two points from a possible forty-one, scoring fifteen and conceding thirteen. 

National Bank of Egypt FC have managed one win at home this campaign in over six matches.

Al Ittihad (10th)

Last five games: WDLDW

Alexandria Club returned to winning after three games without a breakthrough, defeating El Gouna on their ground. Al Ittihad waited till the 87th minute to amass all the points against an opponent who defended so well. This was after their share of the spoils against ENPPI, which was away from home. Al Ittihad have the third-best defense in the league, conceding just (9); unfortunately, they have been poor in front of goal, scoring just eight times this season. 

They have picked up eighteen points from a combined forty-one, scoring eight and conceding nine. 

Al Ittihad have managed one win over their previous seven games on the road. 

Expert Betting Tips

Al Ittihad SC have won three and drawn five over their previous eight meetings against National Bank of Egypt FC. This fixture has produced a share of the spoils in five of their last eight meetings, and it looks like the same will surface here tomorrow.

Al Ittihad hardly wins on the road, while National Bank of Egypt FC have managed just a win in nine home league matches. 

This FIXTURE has produced zero goals in their last three meetings, and knowing the hosts will most definitely defend well and try to score once, I will settle for a home win or draw and under 2.5 goals for 1.70 at (Betway).

I also think this game would be cagey, and we might likely see a halftime stalemate here for 1.82 at (Bet365).

This game will produce more goals after the break for 2.09 at (1xbet).

Good luck!
