How this one could unfold

Al Ahly's home form has been tight defensively and sharp in front of goal, which points towards them controlling most matches from the front. Olympic El Qanah's away performances have leaked goals fairly often, even when they've avoided defeat.

Given El Qanah's habit of drawing rather than losing outright, a cagey scoreline isn't out of the question, but the underlying numbers still favour Al Ahly doing most of the attacking.
