Midfield: Mohamed Shehata, Ahmed Fattouh, Adam Kaied.

The coaching staff are relying on players with different abilities across the three lines. El Wensh stands out with his significant experience in the defensive line, while the presence of Omar Gaber and Bentayg provides options that can give the team greater movement on the flanks.

Three-Man Attack Leads the White Knights 🔥
Zamalek will feature an attacking trio consisting of Ahmed Sherif, Nasser Mansi, and Adi Dabbagh, with the front line expected to play a key role in threatening the National Bank goal and finding the net.
Nasser Mansi represents one of the team’s main options inside the penalty area, while Ahmed Sherif and Adi Dabbagh can provide different attacking solutions through movement behind the defensive line and attempts to exploit available spaces.
The understanding between the attacking players will be an important factor during the match, particularly against a team seeking to organize its defensive lines and limit Zamalek’s attacking threat.
Strong Options on the Bench ⭐
Zamalek have several alternatives on the bench, giving Moataz Gamal greater flexibility when managing the match and making changes according to the team’s needs.
The substitutes are: Mohamed Awad, Mostafa El Zanary, Mohamed Ibrahim, Ahmed Rabie, Mohamed El Sayed, Ahmed Abdel Rahim “Isho,” Mohamed Hamad, Chikobanza, and Hossam Ashraf.
These players could represent important options during the second half, whether to strengthen the attacking side, maintain balance, or respond to any unexpected circumstances that may arise during the match.
