Zamalek vs Aswan Prediction: The home side can’t afford to lose two matches in a row

On Thursday, the White Knights will square off with Aswan FC at the Cairo International Stadium. Zamalek have been inconsistent in recent weeks but stand a better chance here.

Last five games: WWDWL

Juan Carlos Osorio's men lost for the first time in four games as they were beaten by Ismaily. It was another frustrating day for the visitors who were unable to convert their chances.

Zamalek are still in the race to secure the ticket to next year's champions league with eight points behind Future FC in second place. Zamalek have won seven, lost two, and drawn three at home this season.

The visitors have been struggling in recent games but head here with a victory, having gone six matches without a breakthrough. Aswan overturned the visitors' early lead and scored three more to secure all the points. Aswan are six points above relegation, and with the quality of their side, we expect them to stay up.

Aswan SC won four, drew two, and lost seven away from home this season.

Over their last ten meetings, Zamalek have won five while Aswan have recorded two wins and three games ending in a tie. Aswan have already obtained three points against the champions this season and a win here will be one of their first double over Zamalek. The White Knights' recent game was a disaster, especially against a side they never lost against in ten tries. We expect the champions to return to winning ways here; bet on a home win for 1.66.

Aswan hardly score on the road, but we believe they might get a goal here; bet on BTTS for 2.02.

We expect the home side to win before the break for 2.20.

Good luck!
