[Premier League Egypt] Zamalek vs Baladiyat EM - My prediction is a convincing victory for the home side.
Zamalek occupies the upper echelon of the Premier League table. Currently, they have 44 points after 25 matches, trailing the third place by seven points. Notably, Zamalek has four matches in hand. Considering their recent form, with three wins, one draw, and one loss in the last five games, Zamalek can realistically aim for third place. Furthermore, they have the potential to contend for second place. Last season, Zamalek finished third. The team boasts a strong attack, ranked fifth in the league, and a commendable defense, also ranked fifth. Their goal difference is positive at 40:26.
Baladiyat El-Mahalla languishes in the lower part of the Egyptian Premier League table. They are currently 16th, with 23 points after 29 matches, trailing the 15th place by six points. With a game in hand, they can potentially narrow the gap to three points. However, a crucial factor is their poor defensive record, having conceded 55 goals, the worst in the league.
Their offense isn't much better, with 24 goals scored, the third lowest in the league. Their recent form is dismal, with four losses and one draw in their last five matches. Although survival is still possible, their defensive woes make it unlikely.
Prediction: Zamalek -1.5
