Al Masry vs Ghazl El Mahallah Prediction & Betting Tips (17 September)

Al Masry will host Ghazl El Mahallah on September 17 in what promises to be a tightly contested Premier League clash. The Port Said-based side enters the fixture with a solid run of form, having secured three wins in their last five matches and currently sitting third in the league standings. Their recent performances have shown tactical discipline under head coach Hossam Hassan, who continues to blend youth with experience. The likes of striker Amr Marey and midfielder Ahmed Refaat have been instrumental in Al Masry’s attacking transitions, and their presence will be key in breaking down Mahallah’s compact defensive shape.

Ghazl El Mahallah, meanwhile, have been grinding out results with a string of draws that reflect their resilience but also highlight their struggle to convert chances. With only one win in their last five outings, they remain in the lower half of the table and will be looking to turn the tide. Coach Mohamed Abdel Latif “Grindo” has emphasized defensive solidity, and the team has responded with improved organization, particularly in away fixtures. However, their lack of firepower up front—despite flashes of brilliance from winger Mostafa El Badry—could be their undoing against a side like Al Masry that thrives on exploiting defensive lapses.



Historically, Al Masry have had the upper hand in this matchup, winning the majority of their recent encounters. Their home advantage at Ismailia Stadium, coupled with a more dynamic midfield, gives them the edge heading into this fixture. Ghazl El Mahallah’s away record remains a concern, with five losses in seven previous road games this season. Unless they find a way to disrupt Al Masry’s rhythm early, they may find themselves chasing the game—a scenario that rarely ends well for them.

Given the current form and tactical setups, a 2-1 scoreline in favor of Al Masry feels like a realistic prediction. Expect Mahallah to stay compact and frustrate the hosts for stretches, but Al Masry’s superior ball progression and set-piece threat should eventually tilt the balance. A late goal from Mahallah might add drama, but the three points are likely to remain in Port Said.
