Ismaily and Zamalek will be hoping to capitalize on a rare defeat by defending champions Ahly when they face off in the Egyptian Premier League on Thursday.
The early form of Ahly suggested that they are well equipped to win a third consecutive league title, having won eight out of their first nine games.
However, their impressive 46-match unbeaten league run came to an end when they slumped to a 3-2 defeat by last seasons runners-up Maqassa in an exciting match on Sunday.
Ahlys loss prevented them from overtaking Ismaily on top. The Dervishes are leading the table with 27 points, two ahead of Ahly who still have two games in hand.
Zamalek are fourth on 19 points, having played one match less than Ismaily.
Ismaily and Zamalek meet in an anticipated game with everything to play for. Zamalek are desperate to revive their fading hopes while Ismaily are keen to maintain a superb start to the season.
