There is no dominant side in the H2H matches between El Gouna and El Gaish. Both teams won three times in the last nine meetings, with three draws. In the only encounter this season, El Gouna won 1-0. Also, it is worth noting that we have seen only two goals in the last four H2H games.
El Gouna team overview
El Gouna entered the season as one of the relegation candidates and can be very satisfied that they successfully fulfilled their primary goal. El Gouna are ten points ahead of the drop zone and will not worry too much about the final two rounds of the season. Bebo's team struggled recently, collecting only three points in the last five matches. In the previous game, El Gouna played 1-1 on the road against National Bank Egypt. The visitors failed to impress, but they held the lead until the late stages of the match, when their defense finally cracked.
The biggest problem for El Gouna in recent weeks is their terrible offense. They scored only six goals in the last ten matches. Luckily for them, Bebo's team defense is significantly better, so they managed to pick up some points.

El Gaish team overview
El Gaish's story for the 2025/26 season is similar to El Gouna's. They started as a relegation candidate, but two games before the end, Gomaa Mashhour's team secured another year in the Egyptian top flight. The only difference between these two teams is their recent form. El Gaish won two of the last three matches. In the previous game, they won 1-0 at home against Pharco. Neither of the sides impressed, but the hosts converted one of the rare goal-scoring opportunities and picked up a valuable victory.
El Gaish's head coach, Gomaa Mashhour, was very satisfied after three points against Pharco. He said, "We achieved a precious and very important victory over the Pharco team, a victory that confirmed the team's stay in the Premier League next season. The match was very difficult, especially since the opponent had already been relegated to the Professional League, and therefore they played the match without any pressure."
Like El Gouna, El Gaish also have problems with offense. They scored two goals in the last five matches. However, El Gaish conceded only one goal in the same period.

Prediction
El Gouna have five home draws in the last nine matches at Khaled Bichara Stadium. On the other hand, El Gaish drew three times in the previous four road games. Also, four of the last six meetings between these two teams ended in draws, if we don't count penalties in the cup tie two years ago. The game on Friday should be close again, so a draw is very possible.
4 Reasons why we shouldn't expect goals on both sides in this match
- El Gouna scored six goals in the last ten matches
- El Gaish scored two goals in the previous five games
- El Gaish conceded only one goal in the last five matches
- There were only two goals in the previous four H2H games between these two teams
