In the relegation round of the Egyptian Premier League, El Gouna will play Al Ittihad at El Gouna Stadium. The two teams last meeting ended in a win for Al Ittihad. How will this game unfold? Below, I preview this game and provide betting options. 

El Gouna

El Gouna's last league game was against Pharco and they settled for a goalless draw. However, a look at El Gouna's recent matches saw them lose only one, coming against Al Ittihad in a 1-0 contest away from home. However, in other encounters, El Gouna defeated El Ismaily, Ceramica Cleopatra and Modern Sport. In their last home matches, El Gouna have won their last three games, scoring seven goals and conceding one. Ahead of this fixture, El Gouna have accumulated 17 points, scored 10 goals and conceded 15.

Al Ittihad

Al Ittihad's last league game was against Smouha and they lost. In a 0-1 contest, Mostafa El Badry's strike was enough to see their opponent win. However, Al Ittihad have lost their last three matches, the first two against Pyramids and the National Bank of Egypt. Heading into this game, Al Ittihad have only one win in their recent matches, coming against El Gouna. Ahead of this game, Al Ittihad had 18 points in their first 17 league games, scored 11 goals and conceded 16 in the same run.

Expert Betting Tips

The two teams are not reliable but El Gouna have been excellent in their home matches with the same expected here. However, while Al Ittihad won the last meeting of this fixture, I believe they will approach this game with confidence. In the meantime, considering the offensive level of both teams, I do not see either team dominating the offensive battle as this game is expected to end with few goals. 

Our first option is a win for El Gouna in either half with odds at 2.54 on 1Xbet

Our second option is a first half draw with odds at 1.74 on Bet365

Our last option is under 1.5 goals with odds at 1.98 on Betway
