LIVE: Al Ahly v Arab Contractors | Egyptian Premier League

Ahly, who currently lead the Egyptian Premier League, are keen to regain their winning momentum and will confront Arab Contractors today. This comes after their disappointing 1-1 draw against 10-man Dakhleya.

The Red Devils are determined to extend their lead at the top of the table and inch closer to the league title, which they lost to their archrivals, Zamalek, in the past two seasons.

They hope to open a five-point gap so they can shift their focus to their struggling Champions League campaign.

Ahly currently tops the table with 41 points, two points ahead of Pyramids FC and Future FC. However, both of these teams have played three more games than Ahly.

Marcel Koller’s side has a tough challenge ahead as they face Arab Contractors, who are currently in good form and performing at their best in recent years.

The Mountain’s Wolves are managed by former Egypt coach Shawky Gharib and are currently placed sixth in the league standings with 32 points, just two points behind the top four.

With an important match against Sundowns scheduled for Saturday, Koller may decide to implement a rotation policy to provide rest for some of his key players.

The team is still grappling with injuries to key players such as influential midfielder Amr El Sulaya, in-form winger Hussein El Shahat, and agile forward Ahmed Abdel-Kader. Nevertheless, there is a possibility that they could have the return of Mahmoud “Kahraba” Abdel-Moneim for this pivotal game.
