Al Ittihad vs Ghazl El Mehalla: match statistics
Al Ittihad shows a clear improvement in form in recent matches, securing 3 victories in the last 5 meetings (PPG: 1.8), which contrasts with the catastrophic disposition of Ghazl El Mehalla (PPG: 0.4, no wins in the last 5 matches). The hosts have the advantage in possession (51% vs 45%) and scoring efficiency in recent meetings (5 goals), while the visitors scored the same amount of goals but conceded as many as 9 in this period. Ghazl El Mehalla is characterized by a very high percentage of draws away (56%), which suggests a defensive style of play and difficulties in scoring goals (FTS% 44%).
