Season ticket holders at WE Al-Ahly Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Wadi Degla languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting El Geish will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Insights:
  • Wadi Degla have the fewest scored goals in the second half (10) in Premier League
  • El Geish have the most matches over the total-line (13) in Premier League

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Premier League. That game was an away game at ENPPI, so at least Degla are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
