Bitesize Prediction: Pyramids FC vs Pharco – 25/12/24

Competition: Egyptian Premier League

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 4/11 @ BetUS

Hoping to find a route to the top of the Premier League table, Pyramids will welcome Pharco to the 30 June Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, claiming another silver medal finish among Egypt’s elite last season, Pyramids are desperate to go one step further this time around. However, missing out on what they billed as a potential opportunity last weekend as they had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate against Ismaily, Krunoslav Juric’s men have recorded just a single victory from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Suffering real CAF Champions League frustration earlier in the month as they slumped to a 2-0 defeat against Tunisian outfit Esperance Tunis, the former Saudi Arabia boss will also be concerned by his side’s recent issues in the final third. Opening December with a 1-0 loss at the hands of Al Masry, Pyramids have drawn a blank in three of their last five outings. However, looking to claim a welcomed domestic boost on Wednesday evening, the Blues have won their previous three showdowns at the 30 June Stadium by an aggregate score of 10-2.

As for the visitors, watching their flurry come to an abrupt end last weekend as they fell to a 2-1 loss at home against ZED, Pharco will be seeking an immediate response here. Despite spending the majority of last season battling it out at the foot of the Premier League table, Ahmed Khattab’s side have their sights set on mounting a genuine play-off charge this time around. Signing off November with an action-packed 4-3 victory against Enppi, Wednesday’s guests have suffered just a single defeat from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Getting December underway with a 2-1 victory against Petrojet, Pharco should also be excited by their rugged success on the road. In fact, the Alexandria-based outfit have not tasted a single Premier League defeat on their travels since the end of June. Despite being pencilled in as a landslide contender here, Pharco could ask some questions.
