Al Merreikh and Zamalek get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this CAF Champions League Group Stage fixture.

It's quite the trip for Zamalek when visiting Al Merreikh as the cities are 2200 kilometers apart.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago. That game, against Smouha, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Zamalek.
