Important clash at the top

League-leaders El Dakhleya visit Coca Cola in a massive between two of the top three in the Egyptian second division.

Both sides failed to win last week with El Dakhleya drawing 0-0 at home to Nogoom.

Coca Cola missed the chance to go above their rivals after they lost 2-0 against Masr.

Only goal difference separates the sides from second to fourth. In second are Al Tersana, who also drew a blank last weekend as they were held to a 0-0 draw against Al Merreikh.

Porto Suez close gap on the top

Porto Suez were therefore the only side in the top four to win and went level on points with the two sides above them. Mahmoud Saleh scored the only goal of the game in the sixth minute as they beat Gomhoreyat Shepin 1-0.

Porto Suez host bottom side El Zarqa while Al Tersana face Montakhsb Suez.
