It's the second chance for points this season as Pyramids FC and Zamalek battle it out at Cairo International Stadium.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Pyramids FC form and stats
The home fans saw their team lose the first Premier League game of the season here at Cairo International Stadium. Last season these fans witnessed 9 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses from Pyramids FC's 17 home games.
Before that game, the home loss against RSB Berkane with the scoreline 0-1.
Heartbreak for Pyramids in their last match as Al Ittihad's Khaled El Ghandour scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Abdalla El Said for missing a penalty kick versus Al Ittihad in the 53rd minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.
The manager R. Arruabarrena will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Al-Ittihad in only four days.
