Hilal are likely to prove a stiff opponent at Cairo’s Air Defence Stadium in a match that will be played behind closed doors, having beaten four-time African champions Mazembe 1-0 at home in their opening Group A game.

But rookie coach and fan favourite Mido, who has yet to win over critics since replacing Helmi Toulan in the dugout last January, is adamant Zamalek would atone for their defeat by AS Vita Club and eventually reach the final.

“I’m betting on our qualification from this group and to the final after a lengthy absence,” Mido, who still retains the support of Zamalek’s die-hard supporters, said on his Twitter feed.

As well as their recurring defensive blunders, Zamalek have also been suffering from lack of firepower, with their forwards often unable to make the most of the plenty of chances they create.
