The visiting Zamalek side should be favourites in this visit to Masr, as the away team holds a 26 point advantage from their 19 league games this season.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only three days ago.
Masr form and stats
Masr's struggle is real here at Cairo Military Academy Stadium with only 9 points collected from 9 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-3-4. With Masr having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager K. Galal.
The home team returns to Cairo Military Academy Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Aswan (placed 13th) on their last time out; the Premier League game ended 1-1. Before that match, a Egypt Cup win away at Wadi Degla.
Reda Al Weeshi was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Aswan after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Masr as they are travelling to their away game against El Gounah in the Premier League. That match is four days after this one.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Masr here at Cairo Military Academy Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (7 from 9 games). On the other hand, Masr have conceded 10 goals.
Zamalek form and stats
4-3-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Zamalek in their Premier League matches away.
Zamalek had fun at their own home (Cairo Military Academy Stadium) last time out, beating Misr Lel Makasa 1-0. Hossam Ashraf scored. Before that, Zamalek travelled to Al Ittihad and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager P. Carteron when Hossam Ashraf scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 83rd minute. The end of the last match, against Misr Lel Makasa, was very satisfying as Hossam Ashraf scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
After this away game Zamalek return home for a Premier League game against Al Ahly. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Zamalek are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 13 away goals from 10 games (in the league). 12 goals have been conceded by Zamalek in these games.
