- Competition: Egyptian Premier League - Matchwee 10
- Date: Monday, 27th, January 2025
- Kickoff: 17:00 UK / 18:00 CEST
- Venue: Borg El Arab Stadium (Alexandria)
Hoping to bag their first away victory of the season, Enppi will face Al Masry on Monday at the Suez Stadium in an Egyptian Premier League encounter.
After last season's fourth-placed finish in the Egyptian top division, Al Masry earned the right to participate in this year's CAF Confederation Cup, where they successfully passed the first stage of the tournament, advancing to the knockout rounds as Group D's runners-up. In contrast to the national championship, the Green Eagles' campaign is going quite well, as they've managed to bag 15 points from nine fixtures, which is enough to take fifth on the table, just five behind table-toppers Pyramids.
Enppi’s aim this season is to bounce back from last year’s underwhelming mid-table finish, but their plans are being derailed by a slow start, leaving them in third-to-last place, with only Modern Sport and El Gounah below them. Their standing in the table is no shock, considering that the Petroleum club has only converted one of their first nine matches into a win, with their overall points total being a sparse nine, indicating an immediate need for a turnaround in their form.
Al Masry vs Enppi Betting Tips: UNDER 2.5
The hosts Al Masry enjoy a much stronger start to the season compared to Enppi, and they rightfully wear the mantle of favorites, but at the same time, we feel that goal-scoring opportunities won’t be abundant in this clash between two teams with tough defenses. Despite both teams having solid defenses, it seems that scoring has been a shared issue for them this season, especially for the away side, who have hit the target only five times so far. In recent weeks, Ennpi have completely lost their touch in front of goal, as they haven’t found the back of the net in any of their last five matches in the Egyptian top flight. Yet, Al Masry’s offensive play hasn’t shone, especially on their own turf, with the fact that they managed to score just twice and went goalless in four of their last six home games standing as clear proof. Given that the main issue for both teams lies in their toothless attacking lines, we believe this will be a dull contest, similar to their most recent encounter which ended in a goalless draw.

Enppi team news
On the other hand, Enppi will head into Monday’s clash with a full squad, as they have no injury or suspension concerns, meaning their strongest lineup is expected against Al Masry.
However, manager Mohamed Ismail is concerned about his team's attacking line, which has gone five games without scoring, so we might see some changes in the final third of the field.
