Sayed Eid, head coach of Petrojet, faces a tough challenge tonight as his team takes on Al Ahly at the new Suez Canal Authority Stadium at 8:00 PM Cairo time, in the 12th round of the Egyptian Premier League (Nile) ⚽🔥.
Eid is still chasing his first-ever win over Al Ahly after seven previous defeats in all encounters — both with El Nasr and Petrojet. His teams have scored 5 goals while conceding 21, with the last meeting ending in a narrow 3-2 loss to the Red Devils.
Ahead of the match, Eid urged his players to make the most of scoring chances and stay compact defensively to counter Al Ahly’s attacking power, emphasizing the importance of a positive result to improve their league standing 💪🔵.
Meanwhile, Al Ahly enters the clash full of confidence following a strong run of results this season. The team started the campaign with a 2-2 draw against Modern Sport, then defeated Pharco 4-1, suffered a 2-0 loss to Pyramids, drew 1-1 with ENPPI, and went on to secure consecutive wins over Ceramica Cleopatra, Haras El Hodood, Zamalek, Kahraba Ismailia, and Al Ittihad Alexandria 🦅🔥.
Tonight’s match presents a chance for Sayed Eid to break his losing streak against the reigning champions, while Al Ahly will be aiming to strengthen their position at the top of the table.
