Zamalek have a 1-0 goal deficit to overturn in the return leg of the CAF Confederation Cup final when they host USM Alger at Cairo International Stadium. The visitors have been consistent scorers, scoring in each of their last five matches across all competitions, which is why our match prediction leans towards them finding the net.
Zamalek's struggles in front of goal haunted them last time out against USM Alger. It was in the first leg of the CAF Confederation Cup final that they suffered a 1-0 road defeat.
That outcome marked their third time in four matches across all competitions in which they failed to score. This highlights the attacking issues they must resolve ahead of this crucial second leg.
The White Knight returns to their humble abode, which should offer some inspiration. Before their recent 3-0 league thrashing at the hands of Al Ahly, they had been on a six-match unbeaten run (W4, D2).
USM Alger are aware that the tie remains finely balanced ahead of their trip to Cairo to face Zamalek in the second leg of the CAF Confederation Cup final.
However, it's the Algerian side that remains in a strong position to clinch their second title this competition after their narrow 1-0 home win.
That result extended USM's unbeaten streak to six games across all competitions. They are on the road where they've failed to win their last six matches.
