National Bank host El Zamalek at Suez Canal Authority Stadium, al-Qāhirah (Cairo) on Wednesday, Aug 26 at 7:00 PM in the Premier League.

Despite playing at home, National Bank face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. El Zamalek have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives National Bank a slight edge, but El Zamalek are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
