ZED vs Kahraba Ismailia: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Giza finished in the top 10 of the final league table last year. This time, they were literally one point short of making it into the top seven to compete for the title. However, they managed to secure enough wins in the second half of spring. Still, both matches against Ismaily and Wadi Degla ended in draws.
The team from Ismailia finished third in the country’s second division, and that was enough to earn them the right to debut in the Premier League. They spent a long time adapting, including suffering six consecutive defeats. But since the end of April, they have managed to pick up wins fairly regularly. Having moved above the relegation zone, it seems they relaxed, losing to Haras and only drawing with Al Mokawloon.
Abdelkader and his teammates score an average of 1.19 goals per match and concede 0.94. The debutants of this division average 1.06 goals scored and 1.63 conceded per match.
