El Masry vs Al Ahly prediction (Over/Under)

Al Ahly Cairo is travelling to Alexandria Borg El Arab Stadium to face with El Masry in a new round of the Egypt Premier league. Al Ahly leads in Premier league with 40 points after 18 matches and El Masry is on 4th place with 8 points less. Al Ahly is the team with the best defense in their league, in 18 rounds they conceded only 11 goals while El Masry also have a good defense, with 19 goals conceded in this season. The match will be played on neutral venue and without fans due to security reasons and guests have an advantage because El Masry will not play at home but even so i think the game will be difficult for both sides. The coach of El Masry seems to have all the players available for this meeting while Al Ahly will be without goalkeeper Sherif Ekramy, defender Mohamed Naguib and midfielder Waleed Soliman while strikers Emad Moteab and John Antwi are also out. Al Ahly Cairo has played 9 away matches in this season and in 6 of those games have been scored under 1.5 goals in match while last 4 home matches played by El Masry also finished with no more than one goal in match. Al Ahly has some problems in the offensive line where will miss some important players and considering that both sides have strong defenses i expect both teams to focus especially on defense and the game to end with no more than one goal, so even if is a risky bet my choice here is under 1.5 goals.
