Zamalek is facing a difficult confrontation in the tenth round in the Egyptian Premier League championship against the Egypt Clearing Team, hoping to restore the top of the table again.
Zamalek stumbled in the previous match with a goalless draw with the Aswan team to lose the opportunity to be alone at the summit, but the opportunity came to him again after Al-Ahly stumbled into a draw with Pyramids to clear the way to the summit.
Al-Ahly is at the top with 21 points, but Zamalek’s victory over the clearing raises its balance to point No. 23, to rise to the top alone.
Zamalek hopes to overcome the clearing hurdle in order to continue in the lead for a long time, due to its two matches against Ghazl Al-Mahalla and Al-Ittihad of Alexandria after that without playing its red competitor to travel to Qatar to compete in the Club World Cup.
Al-Abyadh is seeking to win on the clearing, then spinning Al-Mahalla and Al-Ittihad of Alexandria to expand the difference with Al-Ahly to 8 points, pending the return of the defending champion from Qatar to play its postponed matches later, which causes pressure on the red team.
But Zamalek’s ambitions collide with the awakening of the Egypt Maqasa team, which ranks seventh with 13 points, collected from 8 matches, only 7 points behind Zamalek.
Al-Maqsas made a huge leap in his last three matches in the league and won all of them, at the expense of Ismaili, Aswan and Ghazl al-Mahalla, to put an end to his bad start this season.
Ihab Jalal, the clearing coach, knows the Zamalek team well, given that he faced him more than once before, in addition to leading the white team for a short period.

Event: Round 10 in the Egyptian League
