Al Ahly to win it with sides bagging goals
We simply can't offer tips for this game and not back Al Ahly to win. That said, the odds aren't particularly appealing and, as such, we're going to build in an additional layer to our bet namely that both teams will score. Al Ahly have won two of their last three games and have lost just one of their past 10 matches. El Sharqia Dokhan meanwhile have not won in any of their past eight. Notably though, they have scored goals in seven of their past 10 hence the both teams to score element of our prediction.
We won't see a hatful of goals
Our second tip for this match, we're opting for an under 3.5 goals tip. Four of Al Ahly's last five matches have gone under that 3.5 threshold; in fact you can tighten that form up if you so wish because each of those lower scoring games have come in their last four matches. El Sharqia Dokhan meanwhile haven't passed the 3.5 mark in any of their last five games.

Anything but an Al Ahly win would be a huge shock
Al Ahly and El Sharqia Dokhan are having very different seasons right now. One is challenging for top spot whilst the other is battling to get off the bottom. Will this match play out according to those standings or will we see a surprise result that cranks up the pressures at the respective ends of the table?
Al Ahly are in a super position right now. Sure, they're only third in the table but with several games in hand there is a serious chance they will sit top once the fixtures have been caught up. Their domestic form has been good with wins in each of their last two and they'll be highly confident of making it three wins from three here.
Al Ahly Predicted lineup – El Shenawy, Maâloul, Rabia, Hany, Fouad, Dieng, Fathi, El Shahat, Abdelkader, Tau, Mohamed
El Sharqia Dokhan are in an utterly woeful situation right now. They're rock bottom of the league and cannot buy a win right now. Despite that, they're not getting battered out of sight in games. That will give them a small amount of hope that they can bag a surprise win.
El Sharqia Dokhan Predicted lineup – Daador, Mostafa, Saleh, Almawgood, Meteb, Aschraf, Khalifa, Naser, Temsah, Iffia, Mayhoub
