New Zamalek Coach Salah clashes with Al Sharqia on Wednesday | EPL

Zamalek led by Mohamed Salah meets its counterpart of Al Sharqia next Wednesday in a deferred match of the 21st week of the Egyptian Premier League (EPL).

Augusto Inacio? the newly Portuguese manager of Whites will attend the upcoming game? but without powers.

It is slated that Inacio will make for Cairo tomorrow? Tuesday. He will take the helm officially ahead of the next match. So he can’t define the skills of the players individually.

Mohamed Salah? the outgoing coach picks the roster of the team and sets the formation.

Outgoing manager Mohamed Helmi failed to leave Zamalek on a high note in his last game in charge after they slumped to a 2-0 away league defeat to rivals Smouha in the Egyptian league on Saturday, dealing a crushing blow to their fading title hopes.

Two first-half goals from ex-Zamalek striker Ahmed Hassan Mekki and former Ahly midfielder Ahmed Nabil ‘Manga’ condemned the Whites to their fourth league defeat. Leaders Ahly can increase their lead over their nemesis to 15 points, having played a game more, if they beat Dakhleya later in the day.

The match has seen talented Zamalek winger Mostafa Fathi miss from the spot what could have been his side’s equalizer, as the Cairo giants failed to find the net throughout.

Zamalek, who still have a game in hand against Talae El-Geish, are now third of the league table level on 40 points with Smouha.

They are also eight points behind second-placed Maqassa, who now look favourites to obtain the second qualifying ticket for next year’s African Champions League.
