Home side to ‘Bank' three points
National Bank of Egypt have been a difficult team to beat; they have no losses in their last 11 games in all competitions, having won five and drawn six of those games. National Bank have also had a fairly good record at home; they've won five of nine home games, with two draws and two losses. In contrast, Ceramica Cleopatra have mostly struggled away from home this season; they've played 10 road games so far, and won just one of them. It's also fair to point out that Ceramica won just three of their last 16 league games; and for these reasons, we're predicting a win for National Bank of Egypt.
Both sides will score
Ceramica have scored a lot of goals recently; they found the net in four of their last five games, with seven goals scored in their last three games alone. On the other hand, Ceramica have not been able to keep the goals out; they kept just one clean sheet in their last seven games. Like Ceramica, National Bank have scored and conceded a lot of goals recently; they scored in 10 of their last 11 games, whilst keeping just one clean sheet in their last eight games. Both teams scored in seven of National Bank's last eight, and three of Ceramica's last four games; on that note, we should expect goals at both ends.
