One of the matches of the 2nd round of the Egyptian Premier League Championship will be played on Sunday in Alexandria, where the local Haras El Hodood will host Zamalek. I suggest betting on goals in this match with a good chance of success.

Haras El Hodood is going through tough times, as their recent matches clearly show. The team is struggling: no wins in their last five championship matches. Moreover, they approach the match against Pyramids with a series of four defeats. It is already clear that the team was lucky to cling to the Championship.
