Haras El Hodood face a stark reality of their season, having lost half of their matches. Their away form is particularly concerning, with a heavy 64.3% of their away fixtures ending in defeat. They concede significantly more on the road (1.5 goals per game) than they score (0.7). However, their recent form offers a glimmer of hope. Despite a heavy defeat in their last away game, they've shown an ability to find the net in their last three outings, and their last match saw a dominant attacking performance with seven shots on goal. This suggests they possess the capacity to trouble opponents, even if consistency remains an issue.
