National Bank of Egypt vs Al Masry Prediction: We anticipate an open game with goals at both ends

National Bank of Egypt will face off against Al Masry at the Borg El Arab Stadium on Thursday. The hosts have never lost against the visitors before, and even though they’re struggling to win games, we still believe they might get something out of this meeting. 

National Bank of Egypt (14th)

Last five games: LLLLD

Tarik Mostafa's men secured their first point after four consecutive defeats. National Bank of Egypt settled for a share of the spoils against Future FC on the road. They drew the first blood after three minutes of play; however, Future FC responded four minutes later when Joseph Ngwem found the back of the net. The result came after their (1-5) home defeat against ENPPI. National Bank of Egypt have a pretty decent coach who always loves to attack; unfortunately, there are not enough resources to express his style of play. 

The hosts are three points ahead of the relegation zone with nineteen points from a combined sixty-six. 

National Bank of Egypt have won three, drawn once, and lost six on their ground this season.

Al Masry (2nd)

Last five games: DWWWL

After three consecutive wins, the Green Eagles suffered a shocking defeat on their ground as they were beaten by Pyramids. They were unable to operate freely as they were outplayed by the visiting team who scored once to cart away the maximum points. The defeat was the sixth of the season, and these results might halt their dream of playing Champions League football. Al Masry maintained their second spot on the log with thirty-seven points from a combined sixty-three, scoring thirty and conceding twenty-six. 

With three wins, a defeat, and a share of the spoils over their previous five games, Al Masry are now seven points below league leaders Pyramids. Al Masry won six, lost four, and drew a game over their last eleven matches at home. 

Expert Betting Tips

National Bank of Egypt won three and drew five against Al Masry in their last eight meetings. Al Masry head here with a distasteful performance against a quality Pyramids team. They were timid as usual and were punished in the 87th on their ground. The Green Eagles always play well against teams below them but have a tough test against the hosts. On the other hand, National Bank of Egypt have managed three wins on their ground this season and have lost back-to-back there. The hosts have never lost against Al Masry over their last eight meetings. We expect the visitors to respond positively after their home defeat; even though the hosts can be very delicate on their ground, Al Masry should at least secure a point here. 

Both teams have not lived up to expectations this season so we expect an open encounter with goals at both ends for 1.80.

Al Masry might get the first goal here for 1.97.

We anticipate more than two goals here for 2.06.

Good luck!
