Jaime Pacheco's men have struggled so far and have already lost three finals this season. After being knocked out of the Egyptian League Cup against ENPPI, they lost to Al Ahly in the final of the Egypt Cup. More recently, they were eliminated by Marumo Gallants in the CAF Confederation Cup in the quarterfinals. Pyramids head here with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five games. It’s going to be interesting to see how they perform against one of the best in Africa, especially after their defeat to Marumo Gallants.
