Pyramids vs Wadi Degla Predictions

• While this looks like a mismatch in league positions, the visitors have a chance.
• The visitors have claimed 83% of their points on the road this term.
• Wadi have lost just 2 of their last 10 away trips.
• Pyramids have drawn 4 of their last 7 home league games.

Visitors Chase Surprise

On the face of it, this clash is an obvious opportunity for the hosts. Pyramids are sitting high in seventh place in the Premier League table, while they are hosting a side on course for the drop. Wadi Degla are second-bottom, which should put them on their way to another defeat here.

However, the visitors could have a chance to strike away to a side who have issues at their own ground. On top of that, there’s been a small move from the visitors as they look to fight for survival. Could Wadi Degla pull off a result against the odds to boost their chances of staying in the top flight this season?

Home Troubles

Neither of these two sides can really say they’re in excellent home form this season. Pyramids come into this clash with just over a point per game from their home matches. They have won once in four attempts here, with no wins coming in any of their last three. While their league position is solid, it’s down from last term’s third-placed finish.

Meanwhile, Wadi have the league’s worst home record. They’ve fallen into the bottom three based on a dire defence in their home games, with the away side picking up 83% of their total points so far on the road. They’ve lost five times in nine league games, but four of those defeats have come in their five matches as the home side this season.

Pressure off for Wadi

The visitors seem to have the pressure off them on the road, giving them a little more freedom in their away trips. They come into this clash aiming to add to a solid travelling record this term, having lost only once in four trips this term. Dating back to last season, Wadi have lost twice in their last 10 Premier League away days.

With Pyramids in poor home form, there’s a chance here for the visitors. The other thing going for the away side is their head to head record. They’ve lost just once in six meetings with Pyramids, so we can see them coming away with something in this clash. We’re going with Wadi Degla to avoid defeat following their away form, with the bookies offering decent value for the hosts to fail to win for the fourth home game running.

Wadi have seen under 2.5 goals in 75% of their trips this season, while they’ve scored four and conceded four in their four away trips. We expect them to mainain that average against a Pyramids side who have drawn four of their last seven home league games. With that form in mind, a 1-1 draw is our pick.
