Pyramids vs Smouha Betting Tips: PYRAMIDS TO WIN

After finishing as runners-up in the past two seasons, Pyramids have set their sights on clinching a historic top-flight title this season, aiming to break Al Ahli and Zamalek’s two-decade monopoly and become the first club to do so since Ismaily’s glory in the 2001-02 campaign.

Under the guidance of Krunoslav Jurcic, the Heirs of the Pharaohs are having a stellar season, currently leading the Egyptian Premier League with a commanding 14-point advantage over their closest rivals Al Masry, though their main concern remains Al Ahli, who have seven games in hand.

The math is clear - Egypt's record champions would claim the top spot if they picked up maximum points in all their postponed matches, which is why the current leaders know they must avoid dropping points and continue to dismantle their opponents just as they have been doing recently.

Pyramids have been displaying rampant form for quite some time now, as Thursday's clash sees them in search of their ninth top-flight victory on the trot, with prospects of extending their winning streak looking bright, given their recent ruthlessness against Smouha, having inflicted defeats in their last five H2H encounters with an impressive goal difference of 17-5.

Meanwhile, Smouha makes a visit to New Cairo after clinching a narrow 1-0 victory against second-tier side La Viena FC to advance through the Round of 16 in the Egyptian Cup, extending their unbeaten run to three matches across all competitions (W2 D1).

It appears that the Blue Wave are relishing their underdog status in recent away fixtures, as they followed up their 1-1 draw with Pharco with two consecutive against-the-odds victories over Arab Contractors and Al Ittihad, signifying a notable upturn for a side that previously required 11 rounds to amass an equivalent points hauls.

However, the likelihood of Smouha causing an upset against the league leaders is virtually nonexistent, especially considering they've suffered five-goal demolitions in their last two visits to the 30 June Stadium. Based on that and other factors, we believe that Pyramids' scorching form continues, as they should have enough firepower to smoothly see off the Blue Wave.
