Al Ahly vs Al Ittihad Prediction & Betting Tips (14 February)

Al Ittihad bring some phenomenal form into this fixture, having secured 13 victories in their last 18 Premier League matches, including five in a row recently. The picture has been a very different one as far as Al Ahly are concerned of late, with a run of seven defeats in nine games doing little to boost their survival chances in what threatens to be a hard-fought battle.

Just three of the last 16 Premier League fixtures involving Al Ittihad have produced fewer than two goals, so achieving consistency has not proven too difficult on this particular front. What’s more, ten of the most recent 12 Al Ahly home games at this level have also been of the over 2.5 goals variety, so it is hard to see anything different when the sides meet.

Both teams have found the net in 11 of the most recent 15 Al Ittihad away games in the Premier League, so Al Ittihad can hardly be accused of keeping things tight when they take to the road. Al Ahly have been similarly entertaining on their own patch of late, with nine of their last 12 top-flight fixtures delivering goals at both ends, so clean sheets could prove hard to come by.
