Match Preview
Zamalek will host Ghazl El Mehalla at the Cairo International Stadium on Saturday, 4 October, as they aim to build on their recent form. Zamalek has shown resilience with three wins in their last five matches, although they stumbled in their most recent outing. In contrast, Ghazl El Mehalla has struggled, managing only draws in their last five fixtures, which suggests they may lack the confidence needed to secure a positive result against a stronger opponent.
Historically, Zamalek has dominated this matchup, winning seven of the last ten encounters, with three victories coming at home. Notably, their games often feature goals; seven of the last ten meetings have seen over 2.5 goals scored. This trend could be significant, as Ghazl El Mehalla's defensive frailties may be exposed by Zamalek's attacking prowess. With the home advantage and a strong head-to-head record, Zamalek will be keen to capitalize on their opponent's struggles and secure a convincing win.
