Al Ahly or Pyramids? Egyptian League Title Hangs in the Balance

The Egyptian Premier League's heading for thrilling finish as Al Ahly and Pyramids FC battle neck & neck for the title. Al Ahly currently leads the standings with 52 point, just 2 point ahead of Pyramids.

Crunch Fixtures to Decide the Champion

The final 2 matchdays will determine the fate of the league:

• Al Ahly face National Bank of Egypt (17 May) & Pharco FC (28 May)
• Pyramids FC take on Petrojet & Ceramica Cleopatra on the same dates

How Al Ahly Can Win the Title?

• Winning Both Matches

Al Ahly would reach 58 point & seal the title, no matter what Pyramids do.

• One Win and One Draw

This would give Al Ahly 56 points. If Pyramids also win twice and reach 56, goal difference would give Al Ahly the edge.

• Pyramids Slip Up

If Pyramids drop points (draw or lose) , single win from Al Ahly would be enough to crown them champions.

• Al Ahly Stumble

If Al Ahly lose or draw both matches and Pyramids win both, the title'll go to the Sky Blues.

Disciplinary Concerns Still Looming

Al Ahly'd faced potential 3 point deduction for skipping the March clash with Zamalek but the league authorities dropped the penalty.

While Pyramids & Zamalek have appealed the decision, no final ruling has been made , so all current scenarios reflect the existing points tally.
