December 25th features a match where Al Ahly will play host to Smouha in a meeting of these two Premier League teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 14 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, 1st placed Al Ahly, recorded a 2-1 win against Pharco. Ahmed Mohamed Abdel Kader Radwan struck first for Al Ahly in the 30th minute on a feed from Maaloul, then in the 36th minute, Shokry Naguib sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Ahmed Sherif. Al Ahly is on a hot streak lately, with 7 wins in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Smouha recorded a 0-2 loss against Al Ittihad. Mabululo struck first for Al Ittihad in the 79th minute, then Ibrahim Hassan added another in the 2nd minute of the second half’s stoppage time At the end of 90 a dissapointed Smouha couldn’t manage to score, and Al Ittihad took the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 9 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 1 win apiece.
Alia Sylla and Benjamin Boateng are the top scorers for Smouha in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Both Percy Tau and Ahmed Mohamed Abdel Kader Radwan have been the hottest scorers for Al Ahly in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals.
