Al Ahly are set for a crucial showdown with Pharco on Wednesday in the final round of the 2024–2025 Egyptian Premier League season.
The Cairo giants top the table with a narrow two-point lead over second-placed Pyramids, who take on Ceramica Cleopatra at the same time.
Victory or a draw for Al Ahly will hand them the league crown, capping off a successful campaign under newly appointed head coach Emad El Nahhas. A loss, however, could see Pyramids snatch the title if they win their match.
El Nahhas is expected to stick with a 4-3-3 formation for the must-win fixture. Captain Mohamed El Shenawy will likely start in goal, with a back four of Ali Maaloul, Yasser Ibrahim, Mostafa Elash, and Mohamed Hany. The midfield trio is set to feature Marwan Attia, Akram Tawfik, and Imam Ashour. Up front, Ashraf Ben Chergui, Taher Mohamed Taher, and Wissam Abu Ali will lead the attack.
Kickoff promises high drama as Al Ahly aim to finish on a high.
