Pyramids vs Al-Ittihad prediction, H2H and probable lineups - November 2, 2025
One of the matches of the 13th round of the Egyptian Premier League will take place on Sunday at the 30 June Stadium in Cairo, where Pyramids will host Al-Ittihad. I’m backing a bet on goals in this clash, as the odds are looking pretty favorable.
Match preview
Pyramids come into this fixture in solid form. Krunoslav Jurcic’s squad is unbeaten in their last eleven matches. Their only defeat this season came back in August, when they lost 1-2 to Modern Sport. Since then, the capital club has picked up momentum. Just days ago, they played a Champions League qualifier, comfortably dispatching Ethiopian Medhin.
Pyramids are currently seventh in the table with 17 points, but they have three games in hand over league leaders Ceramica Cleopatra. The Cairo side has every chance to climb to the top spot as the season progresses.
Al-Ittihad have had a terrible start to the season, winning just twice in 11 matches and currently sitting in the relegation zone. In their last outing, Tamer Mostafa’s men lost to Wadi Degla. To make matters worse, key center-back Mostafa Ibrahim was sent off in that match, so the team will have to cope without him.
Match facts and head-to-head
- Pyramids are unbeaten in 11 consecutive matches.

Prediction
I expect plenty of goals in this match. Both sides will look to play attacking football and push forward, so I anticipate an open game with lots of chances. My prediction: total goals over 2.
