Pharco vs Pyramids FC Prediction 30.07.2024

• Competition: Egyptian Premier League
• Date: Tuesday, 30th, July 2024
• Kickoff: 19:00 UK / 20.00 CEST
• Venue: Borg El Arab Stadium (Alexandria)

In a bid to stay clear of the relegation spots, Pharco will take on a shaky Pyramids FC at Borg El Arab Stadium in Tuesday’s Egyptian Premier League fixture.

Although they are going through one of their poorest seasons domestically in several years, Pharco's recent improvement in form is bringing them closer to maintaining their top-flight status. The latest five league matches show that Ahmed Khattab's men were only defeated by Al Ahly Cairo, collecting eight points during that period, and this run of good results has allowed PHA to build a comfortable six-point cushion over 16th-ranked Baladiyat El Mahalla with three games to go.

They will face a Pyramids FC side that has seemingly given up on the title race at the worst possible moment, leaving them to settle for a second-place finish which guarantees a spot in the qualifiers for the African Champions League next season. Although they are currently tied in points with Al Ahly Cairo, Krunoslav Jurcic's team has three extra matches played and the likelihood of the powerhouse from the capital dropping all their games in hand is almost nonexistent.

Pharco vs Pyramids FC Betting Tips: AH1 (+1.5)

Although Pyramids FC arrives with the tag of favorites, their confidence is low, as they have endured an uncomfortable three-game winless run in the Egyptian Premier League, having lost key title encounters to Al Ahly twice and drawing 1-1 against Zamalek in their most recent match. In stark contrast, Pharco heads into Tuesday's game with a strong rhythm, driven by a noticeable surge in performance over recent weeks that has seen them remain undefeated in their last three fixtures (W1 D2), successfully distancing themselves from the relegation zone. 

Moreover, PHA have particularly excelled at home, having lost only to Al Ahly out of their last seven matches across all competitions at Borg El Arab Stadium, winning four of those, so they will rely on their home form to continue their push towards calmer waters. Additionally, Pharco will look to extend their unbeaten run while drawing motivation from the fact that they have held Pyramids to draws twice this season, with a 2-2 tie in the domestic cup and a 1-1 stalemate in the top-flight clash. Finally, the motivated Alexandria club will carefully assess their chances of earning points against the Blues, who are coming in with diminished confidence, and they would not be surprised if the result mirrors the previous two encounters.
