Zamalek vs Smouha Prediction: The White Knights won’t hold back at halftime

Defending Champions Zamalek will host Smouha at the Arab Contractors Stadium on Wednesday. The home side head into this game after they triumphed over a Burundi-based club in the CAF Champions League.

Zamalek

The White Knights have been in great form after clinching their fourteenth title. Having picked up seventy-seven points from thirty-four games, Zamalek became the champions with a seven points gap at the top.

Their journey to conquering Africa began with a (2-0) win against Elect Sports FC in the first leg. Goals from Zizo and Shikabala were enough to secure them all the points in Chad.

They didn’t have much to do in their return leg as they settled for another (2-0) victory to secure their ticket to this round.

The next rounds were both played in Egypt after negotiations with the Burundi-based side Flambeau du Centre. Zamalek secured the ticket to the group stage after their (6-1) aggregate win.

Zamalek lost four times at home last season; a record that almost cost them the league. However, with their signings and dedication, they would try and minimise the losses.

Smouha

The visitors failed in their attempt to secure the top four last season despite spending almost half of the season in the spot. They ended up in 6th place after gathering forty-seven points in thirty-four games. It was a total downgrade for Smouha who finished in 4th spot a year earlier.

Smouha have secured the services of several quality players this season with the hope of playing continental football next season.
