We must look to the premier league in Egypt to find this match between EnPPi vs Al Mokawloon. A difficult task for the host ENPPI, because Mokawloon seems to be difficult to overcome, especially away. The away record of 6-0-1 with 9: 3 goals shows this clearly. The last away matches 3: 1 and three times 1:0! I believe in a point split here that could easily end 0-0 or 1-1. A match where both teams often play below 2.5 goals, but the odds of 1.55 are not good enough in my opinion. I believe in draw here in this match.
