Ismaily vs Pyramids Prediction: We anticipate a high-scoring game with goals at both ends

In this highly anticipated game, Ismaily will face off against a resurgent Pyramids team at the Ismailia Stadium on Sunday. The visitors are determined to challenge Al Ahly for the Egyptian Premier League this season, and considering their recent run, we anticipate a smooth start when they square off against their inconsistent opponent. 

Ismaily (12th)

Last five games: DLWWD

The Darawish have been impressive lately, performance-wise, as they head here with a share of the spoils against El Gaish on the road. The (1-1) stalemate wasn’t really a bad result, as they played against one of the best defensive teams in the league. However, Ismaily were wasteful, converting just one of their six shots at goal. 

Their recent performance brought relief to coach Ehab Galal, whose job was on the line. Ismaily used to be at the top of the Egyptian League, but they have been below par in recent seasons. Ismaily has conceded twenty-five times this season and scored twenty-two goals. Ismaily sit in the 12th spot on the log, picking up twenty-three points from a combined sixty-six points. 

Ismaily have won five, drawn twice and lost five times at home this season. 

Pyramids (1st)

Last five games: WWWWW

The guests added Ceramica to the list of the defeated teams in the league. Fiston Mayele's brace and a goal from the visitors before the break were enough to secure them their fourteenth victory of the season. 

Krunoslav Jurcic's men are the most in-form side in the division, winning seven of their last eight games. 

The visitors are back to where they belong after their poor start to the season. Since the arrival of their Croatian coach, Pyramids have lost just once in fourteen matches. Pyramids sit comfortably at the top of the table following their recent victory over Ceramica. They have won seven, lost a game and drawn once on the road this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous sixteen meetings, Pyramids have won nine while Ismaily have recorded four victories and three matches ending in a tie. The hosts have been playing exceptionally lately but can be very indecisive in the final third. Ismaily are unbeaten over their last three games, conceding once and scoring four goals. On the opposing side, Pyramids look unstoppable as they’ve now won seven consecutive matches. Ceramica were one of the teams tipped to stop the guests; fortunately, they amassed all the points against them. 

This isn't going to be a smooth ride for the visitors who have been in decent form lately, as we think the hosts will likely try to upset them. Regardless of what the hosts throw at the guests, we expect Pyramids to come off with the maximum points.

We think both teams will get a goal apiece here for 1.96.

This fixture is expected to produce more than two goals for 1.97.

Good luck!
