Live: Al Masry v Al Ahly | Egyptian League DERBY

Match K.O at 18:00 Cairo local time| 11:00 ET Canada-USA

Venue: Alexandria’s Borg El-Arab Stadium

Al Ahly will be seeking to extend their lead in the Egyptian Premier League table when they face stiff opponents Masry in a postponed match on Tuesday.

The Reds, whose eight-season hegemony was ended by Cairo rivals Zamalek last term, currently leads the league table with 40 points after 18 matches, five ahead of the Whites, who are second.

Masry will be hosting Ahly at Alexandria’s Borg El-Arab Stadium behind closed doors after long arguments about the match venue for security reasons; a fact that negatively affected their preparations to some extent.

Fan tensions between both sides have been on the rise since the infamous 2012 Port Said tragedy, when more than 70 Ahly fans were killed after being attacked by rival Masry supporters following the end of an ill-tempered league game.
