Tanta vs Aswan FC Predictions

• Currently 12th and 2 points clear of the relegation zone with 9 points from as many games, hosts Tanta will be reasonably happy with their start to life back in the top flight.
• The side suffered relegation in 2018 but secured an immediate return last season. Their aim now is to merely retain their top flight status.
• Meanwhile, also coming into the campaign as a newly promoted side, Aswan are another team looking to beat the drop this season.
• Nonetheless, after 8 matches they have just 5 points and come into this game rock bottom of the standings.

Tanta looking for home win

After suffering the disappointment of relegation in 2018, Tanta ensured their stay in the second tier wasn’t an extended one, powering to promotion last season. Coming into this campaign penned in for another relegation by most, the side are merely looking to avoid the drop and thus far have made a decent start towards said aim.

After 9 matches, the side have 9 points and have shown they can be competitive at this level. Indeed, they’ve lost just 2 of said matches and have made themselves hard to beat, but will be hungry to start turning draws into wins and Tuesday’s game represents a good opportunity to do exactly that, with a weak visiting outfit in town.

Aswan struggling

Meanwhile, Aswan also came into the campaign as a newly promoted side and were expected to struggle heavily. Said predictions look to be accurate on the basis of the matches played so far and the team certainly haven’t pulled up any trees, coming into this match rock bottom with just 5 points collected.

Aswan have lost 5 of their 8 outings so far and having scored just 7 times and conceded a big 14, it’s not hard to see why. The side will make this trip with spirits low and their issues are only compounded by the fact that forward Ahmed Abdel-Zaher has now been ruled for a long period after rupturing his ACL.

Tanta are clear favourites

Ultimately, whilst they’re certainly not a powerhouse at this level, Tanta have been far more competitive than Aswan so far this season and are at least holding their own. With home advantage behind them and in the better shape of the two, they have to be considered clear favourites in Tuesday’s game.

All things considered, we’re more than happy to back a home win in this one and feel it provides good value at current odds. Tanta have won their last two home games against Aswan, both of which to nil and we think they’ll be able to continue said streak via a 1-0 margin of victory.
