Zamalek and Smouha will face off in the MatchDay 4 of the Egyptian Premier League.
Zamalek is expected to have the capability to generate numerous goal-scoring opportunities and shots on target. On the other hand, Smouha might face challenges in finding the back of the net, although it is possible that they will manage to score at least once as well.
Zamalek seeks to replicate their previous 1-2 Premier League victory against National Bank of Egypt.
Zamalek has been in a scoring spree, finding the back of the net in 100% of their last 6 games. During this period, they’ve scored a total of 11 goals while conceding 12.
Zamalek’s manager, Patrice Carteron, has the luxury of a nearly fully fit squad to choose from, with only one fitness concern. Mahmoud El Wensh, who is recovering from a Cruciate Ligament Rupture, will not be available for the upcoming match.
Last 5 Games: Won: 2, Draw: 2, Lost: 1, Scored: 9, Conceded: 7, Clean Sheets: 0.
Smouha enters the upcoming match on the back of a 2-1 Premier League victory against El Mokawloon in their previous game.
Over their last six matches, Smouha has notched a total of 10 goals while consistently finding the back of the net in each of those games. However, they have also conceded 8 goals during this period. It remains to be seen whether this pattern will continue in their next match.
Smouha’s manager, Hossam Hassan, has only one fitness concern to address, with Junior Ajayi unavailable for the upcoming game.
Last 5 Games: Won: 4, Draw: 1, Lost: 0, Scored: 8, Conceded: 3, Clean Sheets: 2.
