ZED FC
ZED and Zamalek will lock horns in continuation of the Egypt Premier League on Tuesday. The last three games between the two sides have seen fewer than three goals. Can this game follow the same direction? Below is the analysis of the teams, prediction, and odds.
ZED: Form Analysis
ZED played to a goalless draw in their last game against Ghazl El Mahallah, despite taking 11 shots. They thought they had conceded in the 54th minute, but the goal was ruled out due to a handball in the buildup to the goal. The Giza-based club has now remained unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions and have lost just once in their last ten encounters. They have been impressive at home, remaining unbeaten in seven of their last eight games. They sit 7th on the table with 25 points in 17 games, scoring 17 goals and conceding 13.
Zamalek: Form Analysis
Zamalek bounced back to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Haras El Hodood in their last game, with late goals from Ahmed Fatouh and Nasser Mansy being the difference. The Royal Club has won six of its last eight games in all competitions and three of its last four on the road. They sit second on the table with 34 points in 16 games, scoring 28 goals and conceding 11. They are just one point behind top placed Ceramica Cleopatra, with this game in hand.

Prediction
It is going to be a tough battle in this game between two good sides in the league. The hosts enter this game unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions and have gone nine of their last ten games unbeaten. On the other hand, the visitors have won six of their last eight games and need a win to climb to the top of the league. With this, I think both sides will exercise some patience in their attack, which will definitely affect the number of goals in the game. Therefore, my prediction is under 2 at 1.61 odds.
