Ceramica Cleopatra vs National Bank Egypt Betting Tips: BTTS / Draw

Ceramica Cleopatra's quest for a CAF Confederation Cup spot next season continues as they take on a National Bank of Egypt side, who are fighting to avoid relegation.

The hosts come into this contest as favourite to claim all three points, however,  their recent home form does give plenty of reason for concern. While tough to beat at the Arab Contractors Stadium, Ceramica have been held to draws in six of their last nine home fixtures.

More consistent in the goal markets, Ayman Al Ramadi´s side have seen BTTS in eight of their last nine home matches and in each of their seven most recent fixtures. 

National Bank Egypt make the short cross city trip still fighting to avoid relegation from the Premier League. The visitors failed to win five successive league matches before a much-needed 5:2 win against Al Masry last time out. Tarek Mostafa´s side have now seen BTTS in four of their last five matches, and in three of their last five away fixtures.

Recent contests between these sides have been competitive. Three of their last four meetings saw BTTS while Ceramica claimed two wins and National Bank one. 

With Ceramica only winning one of their last five home matches, I prefer to take a chance on both teams finding the net at the Arab Contractors Stadium. The hosts kept just one clean sheet in their last nine home fixtures, and with National Bank boosted by their five-goal haul last week, I fancy BTTS to land on Tuesday. 

BTTS is my top tip for a likely competitive derby contest in Cairo.
