Match info:
CAF Champions League – Round of 32
Venue Burj Al Arab Stadium | 15 Mar 2013 – 18:00 Cairo/Egypt Time
Zamalek will be looking for a first-leg victory when they host Congolese side Vita Club in the African Champions League round of 32 at Alexandria’s Borg El-Arab Stadium on Friday.
The match was initially due to be played behind closed doors due to security concerns but, under pressure from Zamalek’s hardcore supporters (Ultras White Knights), Egyptian authorities eventually agreed to allow up to 3,000 spectators to attend the game.
The five-time African champions are eyeing a comprehensive victory to make sure there will not be any surprises when they face Vita Club away from home in a fortnight.
“We are looking for a comfortable win to make our mission in the second leg easier,” Zamalek’s young star Mohamed Ibrahim told his club’s official website on Thursday.
“We are always looking for victories to advance in the competition,” the 21-year-old added.
