Al-Ittihad is doing quite well this season, the team is in 5th place in the standings (last season Al-Ittihad finished in 12th place, almost dropping out of the Premier League), but the main leaders of the championship have not yet played their games, so the team may well find itself several positions lower.
Zamalek is just one of the favourites in the championship race, the team is still in 13th place, but having played 7-8 games less than the others, so by lost points may be in 2nd place.
In home matches Al-Ittihad loses rarely (1 defeat in 11 games), Zamalek on the road looks so far unconfident, but today the guests will definitely play the first number one. In any case, Al-Ittihad will play from defence, and Zamalek rarely scores away.
Prediction: one of the teams not to score. We recommend the “BTTS - No” bet, odds 1.94
