In Matchday 2 of the Egyptian Premier League, Petrojet will face Future FC in Cairo on Friday, November 8th, with the game scheduled to kick off at 16:00 Central European Time. I recommend a bet focusing on the goal potential in this game.
Match Preview
Petrojet has returned to the top tier of Egyptian football after several years. Following a solid transfer window, the team aims to secure its place in the Premier League for the long term.
Despite being initially tagged as underdogs, Petrojet surprised critics in their opening match, holding off the strong Pyramids FC to earn a point.
Future FC, on the other hand, made a strong impression internationally last season, reaching the CAF Confederation Cup quarterfinals. In the domestic league, they battled for medals until the final round, ultimately finishing in fifth place.
The new season hasn’t started smoothly for Future FC. Despite dominating their first game, they couldn't break through ENPPI’s defense, resulting in a goalless draw.
Match Facts
- Petrojet has scored in each of their last 24 games.
- Future FC has only scored one goal in their last three matches.
- Petrojet averages 2.2 goals per home game, while Future FC averages 1.8 goals per away game.

Head-to-Head (H2H)
These teams have met only once before, in the 2021 Egypt Cup, where Petrojet claimed victory in a penalty shootout.
Prediction
The visitors appear to be the favorites in this match. In my opinion, Future will be able to overcome the bold newcomer and secure a victory.
