LIVE: Al-Sharkeyah v Zamalek | Egyptian Premier League | 04-05-2017

Match K.O @ 18:00 Cairo local time

Venue: Suez Stadium

Referee: Mahmoud Ashour

Zamalek players will be keen to impress new manager Augusto Inacio and lift the team out of its ongoing crisis when they meet bottom side Sharqeya in the Egyptian Premier League on Wednesday.

Zamalek still have a game in hand on their nemesis but a win is unlikely to boost their chances of competing for the title, with Ahly looking formidable in the premier domestic competition.

On paper, Zamalek boast a star-studded squad but their talented players failed to impress this term, apparently suffering from repeated changes in the backroom staff.

Chairman Mansour, as he always does, vowed not to interfere in Inacio’s work.

“You are totally free to choose the players you need and make your own selection,” he told Inacio upon his arrival in Cairo on Tuesday.

“You will have the final word over who should play and who should not.”

They are 11 points behind second-placed Maqassa, the league’s dark horses who played two matches more than Zamalek.

The White Knights, despite their current disappointing form, should not find it difficult to brush aside Sharqeya, who lie at the bottom with 11 points from 21 matches, five adrift of safety.
