๐ Form Guide
Zamalek
WLDWLW
Zamalek will be looking for another win after the 3-0 Premier League victory over Al Ittihad.
For Zamalek, the goalscorers were Ahmed Sayed (14', 89') and Nasser Maher (34').
An interesting trait of more recent Zamalek games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.
Taking their prior sextet of matches before this one, in 5 of them a wager on both teams scoring would've been a loser. Such a pattern wonโt necessarily be continued into this next game, however.
Their prior results show that Zamalek:
- have left without a victory over Al Ahly when playing them at home in the previous 3 league games.
- have left without a victory over Al Ahly in their previous 6 league matches.
- are undefeated in their previous 2 home league matches.
Al Ahly
LWWLDW
Al Ahly go into this meeting after a 0-1 Premier League win in the defeat of FC Masr in their last fixture.
The only player to score from Al Ahly was Wessam Abou Ali (89').
The numbers tell their own story, and Al Ahly have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 11 goals in total. In defence, Al Ahly have been far from perfect.
โ๏ธ Head to head
A review of their past head to head results stretching back to 18/04/2021 reveals that these fixtures have been a source of anguish for Zamalek. They have not managed to register any wins at all while Al Ahly have been the better of the two, winning in 67% of those games where they have faced each other.
Loads of goals were seen in those games, too - 25 overall which averages out at 4.17 goals per match.
The previous league fixture between the two was Premier League match day 31 on 13/07/2023 when the final score was Al Ahly 4-1 Zamalek.
๐๏ธ Team News: Zamalek
Mohamed Abdelshafi (Cruciate ligament tear) and Mahmoud El Wensh (Cruciate ligament tear) wonโt be able to feature for Zamalek .
๐ฐ Team News: Al Ahly
Due to a fully healthy squad to choose from, the Al Ahly boss Marcel Koller has zero fitness worries to speak of before this game.
โก Prediction
Our feeling is that Zamalek may find it difficult to score against this Al Ahly side who we reckon should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
Thatโs why our selection here is for a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 victory for Al Ahly when all is said and done.
Will be interesting to see how this one goes.
