Two Egyptian top flight sides separated by just one place after 16 games meet on Wednesday night as Petrojet play host to Ghazl El Mahalla.
Petrojet were praised for their fantastic campaign in the second division last year when they were promoted after finishing first, but things have not been the same for the Blaugrana this season. They currently sit in the bottom eight with just four wins from 17 games. One aspect they need to improve on is their home form, as only 10 of their 19 points so far have come at the New Suez Stadium.
Ghazl El Mahalla finished second to Petrojet in the second tier last season and are once again below the hosts. But with just two points separating the two sides, a win for Nikodimos Papavasileiou's side on Tuesday will make a massive difference. That's unlikely to happen though as they drew each of their last three league meetings with Petrojet in the Egyptian Premier League.
Petrojet vs Ghazl Al Mahalla Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
The hosts boast at least a goal from each of their last three outings, but they have struggled to score goals at home lately. Sayed Eid’s men failed to score in three of their last five matches at home and as many goals produced under one goal.
Ghazl Al Mahalla are also struggling to score goals away from home at the moment. The visitors failed to score in three of their last four games away from home and as many games ended with under 2.5 goals.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Petrojet vs Ghazl Al Mahalla prediction: 0-0

Petrojet team news
Given the result and scoreline against Ceramica Cleopatra last time out, head coach Sayed Eid is expected to make wholesale changes to his XI.
Having been withdrawn at the start of the second half in that encounter, Mahmoud Shedid Qinawi and Gabrila Chukwudi are among those expected to be demoted to the bench.

Ghazl El Mahalla team news
Ghazl El Mahalla didn’t suffer any injuries in the 3-0 win over ENPPI on Saturday afternoon, so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Nikodimos Papavasileiou maintains his XI.
Bassam Walid missed that game with a cruciate ligament injury and Tuesday’s game will come too soon for the young defender, but the visitors don’t have any suspensions.
