Struggling Wadi Degla will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Smouha in the upcoming league round. It’s 16th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Degla and Smouha.
