- Venue: Petrosport Stadium (Cairo)
In the previous several years, Ennpi was a stable mid-table team in the Egyptian Premier League, not even close to dropping to the relegation zone. However, this season has been an absolute disaster as they are in 8th place (out of nine teams) in the Relegation Group. The safe zone is only three points, and they played one game less. So, we can say their chance for survival is more than OK. Lately, however, they have been impressive in the League Cup, winning the Semi-Finals and even eliminating Al Ahly.
Ghazl El Mahallah suffered relegation in the 2022/23 season but managed to gain an instant return in the following season. This year, their goal is only to survive. And for now, they are doing fine. Right now, they sit in 4th place in the Relegation Group, but five points more than Ennpi, although with a game played more. Now, they must not lose against Enppi to maintain that gap between them and the danger zone.
Enppi vs Ghazl El Mahallah pick: Under 2.5 goals
With 12 scored goals in 18 rounds (0.67 per game), Enppi are among the worst offensive teams in the league. While the offense hasn't been great throughout the season, their defense has been much better lately, which is great for our bet. In the last five matches in all competitions, Enppi allowed only two goals!
Ghazl El Mahallah improved defensively as well, considering they kept a clean sheet in the last two matches against Smouha and Al Masry. Also, away from home, they really struggled to score, scoring one or zero goals in eight out of ten games. So, we definitely do not expect a great offensive display against in-form Enppi.
In the last h2h game at Petrosport Stadium, Enppi won 1:0. Moreover, seven out of the previous nine games ended with fewer than three matches (78%). Considering all the above, an under 2.5 goals seems like the best option for this Premier League tie.

ENPPI team news
A few days ago, FIFA suspended Enppi from registering new players due to not paying their former coach, Jorvan Vieira, a release clause he has been entitled to. Enppi's president, Ayman El-Shereai, said that the club will deal with that matter in the upcoming days.
When it comes to injuries, the team should have no new ones.

Ghazl El Mehalla team news
Goalkeeper Mohamed Amer suffered an injury in the previous league game and had to leave the field after only eight minutes. The 38-year-old goalkeeper missed the last Cup game against Al Masry with that injury and should remain sidelined for the Enppi game. With him out, we should see Ahmed Nafrawi on the goal.
Moreover, Youssef Hassan and Bassam Walid, who missed the previous games with injuries, should remain sidelined.
