Al Ahly will host Wadi Degla at the Cairo International Stadium on Tuesday, 27 January, in a matchup that sees both teams operating at a high level this season. Al Ahly boasts an impressive home record, having gone undefeated in their last five home matches across all competitions, with four wins and one draw. During this stretch, they scored nine goals while conceding only two, including three clean sheets. Their recent form includes a 2-0 victory against Young Africans in the CAF Champions League on Friday, 23 January, which reinforces their strong home performance. In contrast, Wadi Degla comes into the match with a solid away record, having not lost in their last five away games, which includes three victories and two draws. They have netted nine goals in these matches but conceded four, highlighting a potentially vulnerable defense. Their last away match saw them secure a 2-1 win against Al Ittihad on 27 October, a result that adds to their confidence as they prepare to face a formidable opponent in Al Ahly. Key players for Al Ahly include Zizo, who has scored three goals and provided one assist in four home Premier League games this season. Mahmoud Trezeguet, with two goals in six home matches, and Achraf Bencharki, who has contributed one goal and two assists in the same number of games, will also be crucial to their attacking strategy. Wadi Degla will rely on Mahmoud Diasty, who has two goals and two assists in six away games, and Ahmed Farouk, who also has two goals in the same number of matches, to pose a threat to Al Ahly's defense. Both teams will be looking to capitalize on their recent form, with Al Ahly's strong home advantage and Wadi Degla's unbeaten away streak setting the stage for an engaging encounter. As both sides aim to maintain their momentum, the match will likely showcase a tactical battle between Al Ahly's attacking prowess and Wadi Degla's resilience on the road.
