Bitesize Prediction: Smouha vs Enppi – 11/07/23

Competition: Egypt Premier League

Market: Enppi double chance

Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet

Looking to spring an upset and extend on their recent purple patch, Enppi will travel to the Alexandria Stadium when they meet Smouha on Tuesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, while Smouha might have all but extended on their Premier League status this season, the Alexandria-based outfit are certainly signing off the 2023 campaign in the midst of a real nightmare. Last seen putting in another woeful display as they signed off June with an action-packed 5-2 drumming away at Pyramids, Ahmed Samy’s downbeat squad have come under real scrutiny on either side of the international break. Along with marking their return from the fortnight interval with a 1-0 loss at the hands of Nogoom while on Egypt Cup duties, the Blues are now without a win from any of their previous six domestic appearances across all formats. With their extended struggle underlined by a 2-0 defeat against El Gaish back on June 3rd, Smouha have also shown some rather glaring issues at the back. Likewise, mustering just one win from their last four showdowns at the Alexandria Stadium, Samy’s men should face a tough challenge in midweek.

As for the visitors, while Smouha might find themselves in the midst of an extended crisis, the same can not be said for a high-flying Enppi. Last seen punching their Egypt Cup semi-final ticket thanks to a routine 3-1 romp away at Nogoom, Ahmed Koshary’s side have won four of their previous five appearances across all competitions and they should be confident of making another statement here. Likewise, losing just a pair of their previous nine showdowns – a run that stems all the way back to April 28th – the Petroleum Club have breezed their way to a top-half finish. Only continuing to impress many across the Premier League this season, Tuesday’s guests have also found a real clinical edge since returning from June’s international break. Playing out a 1-1 stalemate in each of their last two trips to the Alexandria Stadium, we are backing an away double chance in midweek.
