Live: Ghazl El-Mahalla v Al Ahly | Egyptian Premier League
Match K.O at 19:45 Cairo local time
Venue: Petrosport Stadium
Referee: Mahmoud Ashour
Al Ahly will be similarly looking for their second win in a row when they visit another newly-promoted side in Ghazl El-Mahalla on the same day.
Jose Peseiros men managed to edge out a resilient Talae El-Geish side 1-0, thanks to a fine lobbing shot from Abdallah El-Saied with just 15 minutes remaining.
Likewise, Mahalla who were defeated 1-0 in their opening game at Smouha will be looking to make the most of the absence of center-half Ramy Rabia, whose absence continues due to injury.
