Bitesize Prediction: Pharco vs Pyramids – 06/06/23

Competition: Egyptian Premier League

Market: Both teams to score – No

Odds: 7/10 @ BetUS

Knowing that they could potentially punch their CAF Champions League ticket in midweek, Pyramids will travel to Pharco on Tuesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, while Pharco might have felt like they missed out on a golden chance over the weekend, Tarek El Ashry’s men are enjoying what has been a bright end to the 2023 campaign. Despite being last seen a few days ago eventually settling for a 0-0 stalemate away at Ceramica Cleopatra, the Alexandria-based outfit are unbeaten in each of their last six Premier League appearances. Likewise, suffering just a single domestic defeat since way back on February 20th, the former Al-Hilal boss should also be excited by his side’s recent improvements at the back. Along with extending on their Egypt Cup adventure on May 10th thanks to a 1-0 victory at home against Telecom Egypt, Pharco have now recorded a clean sheet in four of their previous five domestic outings. Likewise, along with shipping just a single strike in over 530 minutes of action, it should be highlighted that El Ashry’s squad have recorded back-to-back clean sheets at the El Geish Stadium.

As for the visitors, last seen putting in another stellar display, Pyramids are enjoying what has been a hugely impressive end to the 2023 campaign. Eventually picking up a gritty 1-0 victory at home against Future FC, Jaime Pacheco’s side know that three points here could see them officially punch an AFC Champions League ticket. Appearing to cruise their way towards another top-two finish this season, the Blues have now won each of their last six straight domestic appearances – a run that stems back to May 5th. Picking up a 3-0 victory when they welcomed Pharco to the 30 June Stadium for their last Premier League meeting on January 19th, Tuesday’s hosts will be desperate to produce a repeat display here. Shipping just 18 top-flight strikes in their 29 appearances this season, it should also be noted that Pyramids have conceded just a single strike in any of their previous five outings.
