Al Ittihad vs National Bank of Egypt Prediction: A win for the hosts is expected

At Alexandria Stadium, Al Ittihad is set to host National Bank of Egypt in the 14th round of the Egyptian P💮remier League. Let's delve into a preview of this match and formulate a prediction.

Al Ittihad will be eager for a more favorable outcome in their upcoming match after experiencing a 1-0 loss in their previous Premier League fixture against Pyramids. The decisive goal in that match came in the 75th minute courtesy of Ahmed Samy, securing all three points for Pyramids. Al Ittihad is currently in a three-match winless streak across various competitions, with two losses and one draw. In the ongoing league season, they have amassed 19 points from 11 matches, placing them in the 5th position in the standings. Notably, they have scored 16 goals and conceded 13 during this period.

In their recent Premier League fixture, National Bank of Egypt secured a 1-1 draw against ZED FC. Despite falling behind to Ahmed Atef's strike for ZED FC in the 43rd minute, National Bank of Egypt managed to salvage a point as Mohamed Reda's own goal in the 90+1 minute leveled the score. This draw extended National Bank of Egypt's unbeaten streak to four matches, including two draws against Al Masry and Smouha, as well as a victory over Arab Contractors during this run. Over the course of their last six outings, National Bank of Egypt has netted a total of 10 goals, consistently finding the back of the net in each of those matches. However, they have also conceded 8 goals during this period.

These two teams appear to be struggling▨ with room for improvement on both ends of the field. Despite recent challenges, the home team holds an advantage in this fixture, and a return to winning ways is anticipated. Addဣitionally, given the expectation of attacking displays from both sides, betting on both teams scoring with at least three goals at full time could be a viable option.
