Al Masry vs National Bank of Egypt Prediction: Expect a lot of offensive play

New Suez Stadium will host the ♈round 13 Egyptian Premier League encoﷺunter between Al Masry and National Bank of Egypt. Heading into this game, Al Masry won the last meeting between these sides in the Egypt Cup. How will the visiting team respond in this fixture? I preview this game below while offering the best betting opportunities. 

Al Masry

Al Masry are coming off a win over Al Ittihad in their last league game and will eye a similar outcome. In a 1-2 contest, Karim Bambo netted twice for this side to give them a solid advantage and a last-minute Youssef Osama Nabih strike for Ittihad was not enough to deny this side maximum points. In the meantime, Al Ma𒆙sry heads into this game with an unbeaten run of four matches, picking three wins and drawing ZED FC on the road. This season, Al Masry have accumulated 22 points, which sees them just sitting seven points adrift of✤ first-placed Al Ahly. In 12 games played, Al Masry have scored 12 goals and conceded 8 as they sit 4th in the standings. 

National Bank of Egypt

National Bank of Egypt settled for a 1-1 draw with ZED FC in their last league game and will hope for a win here. In that encounter, Shady Hussein's strike from the spot put their opponent in the lead in the 72nd minute but a last-minute Ahmed Rayan goal from the spot was enough to see them avoid a defeat. In t⛎he meantime, the visiting team heads into this game with three wins in their last five matches, defeating El Gouna, El Ismaily, and ENPPI in that run. This season, the visiting team has 18 points accumulated from their first 12 matches of the season. In those matches, this team scored 11 goals and conceded 12 as they sit 7th in the standings. 

Expert Betting Tips

I do not expect a quiet halftime looking at how sharp the two teams have been offensively lately. While Al Masry have been the better side up to this stage of the season, National Bank of Egypt have been a competitive side also. Yet, I feel the visiting team's struggle offensively will be a huge problem they will have to de💖al with. I expect a close contest, but Al Masry should edge to victory, while the two teams net.
