Ghazl El-Mahalla vs Haras El-Hodood prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – January 21, 2025
Ghazl Al Mahalla
Haras El Hodoud
In the 9th round of the Egyptian Premier League, El-Mahalla will face El-Hodood. The match will take place on Tuesday, January 21, with a scheduled kick-off at 15:00 CET. I suggest placing a bet on the game's total goals.
Match Preview
El-Mahalla managed to return to the top division last season after a year’s absence. The team is now trying to establish itself in the Premier League, but so far, it has not had much success.
Notably, they have yet to win a home game since their return, having earned only one point at home. However, El-Mahalla has looked much better away, earning eight points in total, which places them 14th out of 18 teams.
El-Hodood’s story mirrors that of their next opponent. The teams were relegated together and then both returned to the Premier League. It’s worth noting that the club has performed poorly in the new campaign and is at the bottom of the standings.
Interestingly, despite having only one win in eight matches, El-Hodood has had a relatively decent scoring record compared to the main teams fighting for survival. However, they have only earned one point away from home.

Head-to-Head (H2H)

Prediction
Both teams appear to be equal opponents and have struggled recently. Their scoring records are unimpressive, so I suggest betting on under 2 total goals.
