The fate of the Egyptian Premier League title will be decided tonight after the final round of the season is played simultaneously across three different stadiums, with a tight race among three teams at the top of the table.
All matches are scheduled to kick off at 2:00 PM Cairo time, in what is expected to be a highly intense and pressure-filled night for all title contenders.
Final matches of the season
The decisive fixtures are as follows:
- Al Ahly will face Al Masry
- Pyramids FC will play against Smouha SC
- Zamalek SC will take on Ceramica Cleopatra FC
The results of these three matches will determine the league champion, with all three top teams still in contention for the title.
League standings before the final matches
Before the final round, the standings were as follows:
- Zamalek SC – 53 points (25 matches)
- Pyramids FC – 51 points (25 matches)
- Al Ahly – 50 points (25 matches)
Title scenarios
Zamalek SC need at least a win or a draw to secure the title regardless of other results.
Pyramids FC must win their match and hope for unfavorable results for Zamalek to claim the championship.
Al Ahly still have a chance to win the title if Zamalek lose and Pyramids fail to secure victory.
Unique championship arrangement
The Egyptian Football Association has introduced a unique arrangement for the trophy presentation, where the league trophy will be placed on a special aircraft flying between the three stadiums hosting the final matches.
The plane will rotate between Cairo International Stadium, Air Defense Stadium, and Borg El Arab Stadium, waiting to land at the stadium of the confirmed champions once the final whistle is blown.
