- Competition: Egyptian Premier League
- Date: 28/05/2026
- KO: 15:00 UK / 16:00 CEST
- Venue: Suez Stadium
Top flight action takes place in Egypt on Thursday evening as Petrojet takes on El Gouna FC in Cairo.
The Suez Stadium is the venue as Petrojet look to build on a fine win at Haras El Hodoud last week while El Gouna also claimed victory with a narrow success against El-Gaish.
Past encounters between these sides have been competitive, and we should expect more of the same at Suez Stadium.

Petrojet team overview
Petrojet come into Thursday’s Egyptian Premier League contest in high spirits after an excellent 3-0 away win at Haras El Hodoud last week. Early goals from Islam Abdallah (7') and Badr Mousa (16') ensured a straightforward victory for Sayed Eid’s side.
The Jets have enjoyed a solid run of results in recent weeks, picking up four wins while losing just one of their last eight fixtures. Unbeaten in their five most recent games, Petrojet sit fourth in the EPL, five points behind league leaders Wadi Degla.
Despite their solid form, clean sheets have been rare, with at least one goal conceded in six of their seven most recent fixtures. Five of those games finished with both teams on the scoresheet.
That outcome has a good chance in this contest, with seven of nine previous encounters between these sides finishing with BTTS.
Head coach Eid is likely to stick with the same starting XI that eased past Haras El Hodoud. The hosts have no reported injury issues.

El Gouna FC team overview
El Gouna FC make the trip to Suez Stadium looking to maintain winning form after a 2-1 victory against El Gaish last Friday. Late goals from Marwan Mohsen (84', pen.) and Adham Karim (90+1') secured a fine comeback win for Ahmed Mostafa’s side.
The Yellow Storm had endured a five games winless streak (D3, L2) before last week’s much-needed win at Khaled Bichara Stadium. Despite their lack of victories, El Gouna have remained tough to beat, with only two reversals in nine previous league fixtures.
On the road, four of their last seven games ended deadlocked, and another evenly-balanced contest is expected on Thursday. Four of the visitors last six games also finished with both teams on the scoresheet.
Head coach Mostafa could make one or two changes to his first XI this week. Ojo Tolulope could come into the side after bagging an assist in a second-half substitute appearance last time out.
