Pyramids to win with a clean sheet to boot
First of all, we would like to point out that El Sharqia Dokhan have won just two of 21 league games this season; they are last on the Premier League table, having lost 12 of those 21 games. As a matter of fact, El Sharqia Dokhan are without a win in their last nine games. In contrast, Pyramids have been the best road team in the league so far; they have seven wins in 11 games away from home, with two draws and two losses. It's also fair to point out that Pyramids have one of the best defences in the league; they kept four clean sheets in their last six games, allowing just two goals. All things considered, we believe that Pyramids will win whilst keeping a clean sheet.
It will be a low scoring match
We've mentioned that Pyramids have not conceded many goals recently; in fact, only one team has allowed fewer goals than Pyramids this season. As a result of their solid defence, Pyramids' games are usually on the low-scoring side; five of Pyramids last six games saw less than three goals scored, with three of their last four games going under 1.5. Considering El Sharqia Dokhan scored just 16 goals in 21 league games, we shouldn't expect a lot of goals in this match.
