On Wed Feb 23rd, in week 10, Ismaily plays host to El Gounah in a clash of the Premier League. In their last match, 17th placed Ismaily, recorded a 0-1 loss against Pyramids FC. Ahmed Samy struck first for Pyramids FC in the 64th minute on a feed from Ibrahim Adel, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Ismaily couldn’t muster any offence and Pyramids FC ran away with the shutout win. Ismaily looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10, while 12th placed El Gounah is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against El Geish. Islam Abdelnaim scored the first goal for El Gounah in the 14th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, El Geish was frustrated by El Gounah’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. El Gounah ended the match with the shutout victory. El Gounah is looking for direction having 3 win and 3 losses in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Khaled Kamar has been the most prolific scorer on El Gounah in the last five matches with two goals. Hashem and Shokry Naguib are the top scorers for Ismaily in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
