ZED

ZED, which was promoted to the Egyptian Premier League from the Second Division last season, is having an absolutely historic season. The young team from Cairo occupies third place and is seriously contending for a spot in the CAF Confederation Cup for the first time in its history. Currently, ZED is just one point ahead of Al Ittihad, but they have one game in hand. Therefore, the stakes for this head-to-head match are extremely high.

In their last 5 matches, ZED has secured 12 points, suffering only a surprising defeat to Arab Contractors in the penultimate round. In their previous game, ZED defeated their direct competitor for a top-4 spot, Smouha, with a score of 2-1.

Al Ittihad

Like ZED, Al Ittihad is vying for a top-4 finish and is currently in fourth place. To maintain a good chance, the "Kings of the City" need to secure three points in this head-to-head match, as everyone understands that Al Ahly, who have played seven fewer matches due to their participation in the CAF Champions League, will soon enter the top-4.

Al Ittihad's position has significantly worsened due to recent results. Al Ittihad has only garnered six points in their last 5 matches. In the previous round, Al-Ittihad lost 0-2 to Smouha, following a narrow victory over Arab Contractors.

Interesting facts and head-to-head history

• This game will be the fourth meeting between ZED and Al Ittihad.
• ZED has never beaten Al Ittihad: 2 draws and 1 loss.
• In the 7th round of the current season, ZED and Al-Ittihad played to a 0-0 draw.

ZED vs Al Ittihad prediction

The stakes are extremely high for both teams, so I expect a cautious game from them. My bet is on under 2.5 goals.
