Smouha vs Pyramids: We expect a share of spoils in this encounter

Smouha will host Pyramids FC at the Alexandria Stadium later tomorrow. Both teams are contesting for the CAF Continental spots but only one team will be given the opportunity as Al Ahly and Zamalek will always qualify for the tournament. Can the visitors make it a back to back away win?

Pyramids (3rd)

Last five matches: LLWLW

Pyramids have failed to take advantage of Al Ahly's dip in form as they have lost three times in the last five matches. They are basically the best team after Zamalek and Al Ahly. With five points above their opponent, they are just a point behind Al Ahly and nine points below Zamalek in first place with two games to spare.

A win for them will take them above Al Ahly and six points behind Zamalek, they simply need to start getting those away points and this match will determine if they are really ready to compete with the two best teams in the country.
