Smouha vs Ceramica Prediction: Home team to either win or lose in a close contest

Smouha will square off with Ceramica at the Alexandra Stadium on Thursday. Both teams have been performing below par in recent games, however, we expect this match to be intriguing with the home side recording a victory. 

Smouha (6th)

Last five matches: LLLDL

The home team has failed to win any of their previous five games with four losses and a draw. These performances started after their recent win against Al Ahly. Although most of their casualties have been against great teams like Zamalek and the National Bank of Egypt. 

Their last match against Ghazl El-Mahalla was nothing to write home about as the home team overpowered them with a (1-0) victory. Their goal drought continues as they have only scored one goal in the previous five games.

Smouha have won eight, drawn three and lost twice in the last thirteen home games.

Ceramica (9th)

Last five matches: WWLDL

The visitors have had some mixed results in recent games having gone three matches without a win; they have lost twice and drawn once. They are six points above the relegation zone with thirty-three points in the last twenty-eight games.

They recorded a defeat at home on matchday 28 against Eastern Company. The result didn't tell how the game went as Ceramica were the best team, just that luck was not on their side.

Ceramica have won twice, drawn seven and lost five in the last fourteen games.
