Zamalek can heave a sigh of relief as influential duo of Al-Dabbagh and Mahmoud Bentayj are set to be ready for the crucial Egyptian Super Cup final against Al Ahly.

In a high-stake clash on Sunday, the two most glamourous clubs in the North African country will battle it out for the prestigious trophy.

The duo had to be substituted in their semifinal clash against Pyramids on Thursday due to an injury setback, with the White Castles cruising to 5-4 penalties shootout victory after stalemate in regular time.

Despite the win, fans and technical staff at large were left frustrated following injuries to their key players in the match. Concerns were raised about the availability of the duo for the derby against Al Ahly this weekend.

Upon further test, both Oday Al-Dabbagh and Mahmoud Bentayj are expected to be ready for the much-anticipated clash on Sunday.

Zamalek technical staff intends to gradually introduce the players into the next group training session, with the aim of ensuring their full recovery before the crucial match.

The White Castles are aiming to triumph over their rivals to annex the covetous trophy this weekend.
