Match preview

Zamalek come into this match in a phase of controlled confidence, combining results with a calm and assured approach. In the first leg, they secured a narrow 1-0 win over Belouizdad, having earlier shown their attacking strength with a 4-1 victory against Al Masry. This highlights their ability to switch between possession-based play and a more direct, vertical style.

At home, Zamalek have been particularly solid and composed. They have conceded just once in their last five matches across all competitions, turning their ground into a real stronghold. Their ability to dictate the tempo and manage games has become a defining feature of their performances in Cairo.

CR Belouizdad, meanwhile, arrive with more inconsistent momentum. Despite impressive wins like the 7-0 rout of ES Mostaganem and a 3-0 victory over Paradou, their 0-1 loss in the first leg once again exposed struggles in high-pressure situations, where their attacking clarity tends to diminish.

That said, the Algerian side remain dangerous. They are willing to take shots, use the width effectively in their 4-2-3-1 system, and can turn matches into physical battles. However, discipline is a concern — 16 yellow cards in their last five games reflect a tendency to lose composure at key moments.
