Zamalek vs National Bank of Egypt Prediction: We expect goals here

With the Egypt League Cup being their only realistic trophy to lay their hands on this season, Zamalek will go all out against National Bank of Egypt at the Cairo International Stadium on Sunday.

The home side have retrogressed massively this season as they’re out of the Egyptian Premier League, CAF Champions League and Egypt Cup. The White Knights will be without coach Ferreira who was sacked a few days ago.

More recently, they were knocked out of the CAF Champions League after the defeat against CR Belouizdad in Algeria.

Zamalek will bounce back but not this season anymore.

The visitors will be lucky not to be relegated this season, having picked up seventeen points from a possible sixty-three since the commencement of the season. They head here after beating Pyramids in the Premier League.

National Bank of Egypt are the worst away side in the division, having gone eleven games with four draws and seven defeats.

The last five meetings have seen Zamalek with three wins and two draws. National Bank of Egypt will focus more on surviving relegation this season, while Zamalek will see this tournament as another opportunity to lay their hands on silverware. Zamalek will be without star forward Jaziri, midfielder maestro ZIZO and first-team goalkeeper, who are on international duty. It will be challenging for the home side to win here. Bet on BTTS for 2.02.

We expect to see more than two goals here for 2.23.

Bet on a home win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 1.78.

Good luck!
