Match Preview

Al-Ittihad has had a challenging start this season, earning just 5 points from six matches. With only one win, their defense is a bright spot, having allowed only 8 goals, which is fewer than many competitors. Their recent goalless draw against Pharco indicates they can maintain a solid defensive structure.

Offensively, Al-Ittihad has struggled, scoring only three goals so far. Their leading scorer is midfielder Mostafa Ibrahim, who has netted once, while Karim El Dib has contributed with an assist. Improving their attacking efficiency will be vital, as controlling the game without scoring can lead to missed opportunities.

Kahraba Ismailia faces a tougher situation, still searching for their first win and managing just two points. They have lost four games in a row, revealing significant defensive weaknesses with 14 goals conceded, the highest in the league. Even at home, they suffered a 1-4 defeat to Wadi Degla.

On the brighter side, they have scored five goals in six matches. Forward Ali Suleiman leads their attack with two goals, and Mohamed Said has provided an assist. However, their defensive problems could overshadow any scoring efforts.
