ZED FC vs Arab Contractors Prediction: In-form ZED FC to win

In the Egyptian Premier League, ZED FC will play host to Arab Contractors at the Cairo International Stadium. The last meetings between these sides ended in a 3-3 draw. Will there be a winner in this encounter?

ZED FC showed class against Baladiyat El Mahalla last weekend, securing a dominating 0-3 win. In that game, ZED FC took the lead just 19 minutes into the game, with Mostafa Saad putting them ahead. However, ZED FC scored their second from the spot in the 67th minute, with Khalil Raafat converting well. However, ZED FC also scored their third goal from the spot, with Mostafa Ziko scoring this time. With that win, ZED FC won three consecutive games, with two others coming against El Gouna and El Ismaily. This season, ZED FC have accumulated 33 points, coming from 20 league games, and they are seated 3rd in the standings.

Arab Contractors lost to Smouha the previous weekend, losing 0-1 in a home game. Hossam Hassan's 43rd-minute strike from the spot was the difference in the encounter, giving their opponent all three points. In the meantime, Arab Contractors have lost all of their last three games, with the first two being against Baladiyat El Mahalla and Pyramids. The visiting side is seated 17th in the league standings with 12 points, one point ahead of bottom-placed El Daklyeh. Arab Contractors have scored just six goals this season in 19 games while conceding 22.

Arab Contractors is one of the weakest sides in the league at the moment, and ZED FC has shown more character this season. The hosts are the better this season and have consistently demonstrated what they are up to. I am confident the hosts will win here, and while the visiting team has given up many goals lately, I am backing this one to end with goals also.
