Zamalek prepared for CA Bordj encounter

ALGERIA (GoPharaohs.com) - Zamalek head trainer Mahmoud Saad said that his players are “absolutely ready” for their Arab Champions League second-leg encounter with Algerian rivals CA Bordj this Monday. Zamalek had arrived in Algiers two days earlier before heading off to Bordj.

Zamalek will be going in with a strategy that strikes a balance between offense and defense, said Saad. He added that the ultimate goal is to play well and come out still on top of the ACL group. Any deviation from Zamalek’s primary tactic will be dictated by the events on the pitch on Monday.

Zamalek leads their ACL group with 7 points while CA Bordj are right behind with 5 points. In their first leg encounter in Cairo, the two teams drew 2-2.
