The race for third spot heats up as Al Masry go head-to-head with Zamalek in a high-stakes playoff encounter at Suez Stadium on Thursday.

Delivering one of their most convincing performances of the season, Al Masry blew away Petrojet in a one-sided 4-0 showcase at home, staying firmly in the hunt for a top-three finish as they sit only four points behind the current occupants of that spot.

Not only did Zamalek solidify their hold on third place, but they also threw their hat into the title race by capitalizing on the 1-1 draw between Pyramids and Al Ahly while easing past Haras El Hoodod with a routine 2-0 away triumph to cut the deficit to just six points at the top.

Al Masry vs Zamalek Betting Tips : UNDER 2.5

With this being their fourth head-to-head of the current campaign and the previous three delivering only two goals combined, we’re expecting another tactical arm-wrestle where neither side will want to overcommit, making another low-key showdown feel highly probable. Zamalek’s pursuit of title may hit a bump in the road, given that Al Masry have been remarkably resilient at home where they’ve stitched together a 13-game undefeated streak that was actually kickstarted by a scoreless draw with the White Knights earlier this year. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that Jose Peseiro's men have tightened the screws at the bak during their recent road fixtures, with four of their last five outings in all competitions ending without conceding. One key aspect that shouldn’t be overlooked is that previous encounters between these rivals at Suez Stadium have been extremely flat and low on end product, with no more than a single goal scored in five of the last six H2Hs, and when you factor in both teams’ recent defensive solidity alongside the high-stakes nature of this fixture, it sets the stage for another tense affair likely to be settled by the finest of margins.
