Petrojet vs ENPPI prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – January 10, 2025
The 8th round of the Egyptian Premier League will kick off with a match in Cairo, where local Petrojet will face ENPPI at the Petrosport Stadium. I suggest a bet on the outcome of this match with good chances of success.
Match Preview
The "Blue and Maroon" finished first in the Second Division last season, outpacing their closest rival, Ghazl El Mahalla, by a solid 12 points. However, their start in the top division has been less than stellar. In the opening four rounds, the team failed to secure a win, recording three draws and one loss.
Things started to improve toward the end of the year. Petrojet achieved back-to-back victories over Tala’ea El Gaish (1-0) and El Gouna (1-0). In their most recent match, they drew 1-1 away against ZED. As a result, after seven rounds, the team sits in ninth place in the standings with 9 points.
ENPPI finished only ninth in last season’s Egyptian Premier League. Their start to the new season has also been unimpressive. Over seven rounds, ENPPI managed just one victory while suffering three defeats.
On the other hand, in their last match, they hosted one of Egypt’s football powerhouses, Al Ahly, and managed to snatch a point with a 0-0 draw. Overall, the team has now gone three matches without a win, with one loss and two draws. In four away matches, ENPPI has yet to secure a victory, recording two draws and two losses.

- Petrojet: Salah, Kenawi, Reyad, Reda, Tawfiq, Bahbah, El Metwally, Hamdan, Ben Moussa, Chukwudi, Ibrahim
