Pyramids FC come into the game on the back of a 1-0 win at Al Ittihad in the Egyptian Cup. The victory means Pyramids FC have progressed to the quarter-final of the competition where they will meet National Bank of Egypt away.
The win over Al Ittihad means Pyramids FC are undefeated in their 8 most recent fixtures in all competitions and they have won all 8 of those games.
The additional wins have come over Ismaily, Haras El Hodood, and Future at home in the league, Ghazl El Mehalla, Al Ittihad, and Pharco away in the league plus Raya Ghazl at home in the cup.
Trends show Pyramids FC have not lost in 19 of their last 20 home games in the league. In fact, they are unbeaten in their last 14 home league matches and have won each of their last 4 league fixtures on home soil.
Pyramids FC have been solid defensively when playing at home in the league and they have conceded just a single goal in their last 5 home league matches.
Semouha Club make the trip to the 30 June Air Defence Stadium having lost 1-0 at home to Nogoom in the Egyptian Cup. The defeat means they have nothing left to play for this season and the highest they can finish in the league is 9th place.
Semouha Club have been struggling to win recent games and they have failed to record a victory in each of their 5 most recent fixtures.
In addition to the loss at home in the cup, there have been defeats away against Pharco and El Geish in the league. Trends show Semouha Club have won only 1 of their last 7 league matches.
In terms of their away form, Semouha Club have lost 3 of their last 4 league games. They have failed to score a goal in each of their last 2 away league matches and have kept just a single clean sheet in their last 5 league games on the road.
Team news: Pyramids FC can call upon some of the top goal creators in the league, with Walid El Karti and Ramadan Sobhi both having 7 assists to their name in the league.
Semouha Club rely on Benjamin Boateng and Hossam Hassan for their goals, with both players having found the back of the net 7 times this season.
We do not expect to see many goals in this game and it is going to be tough for Semouha Club to make the breakthrough considering the home defensive record of Pyramids FC. Therefore, just a single goal could be enough for Pyramids FC to win.
