The National Bank team is preparing to play in the second round of the current 2026-2027 Egyptian Premier League season, when they face Al-Zamalek.
The National Bank will host their rivals Al-Zamalek at 8:00 PM Cairo time at the Cairo International Stadium.
The National Bank, led by Ayman El-Ramady, started their league campaign with a 1-0 loss to Abu Qir Fertilizers, while Al-Zamalek drew 0-0 with Al-Ittihad Alexandria in the first round.
Both teams are aiming for a win and the three points to make up for their stumble in the opening round, whether for the National Bank after the defeat or for Al-Zamalek after the draw.
The National Bank will be without their striker Osama Faisal against Al-Zamalek due to a hamstring tear, while defender Mahmoud El-Gazar is also absent due to a front thigh muscle injury.
In contrast, Ayman El-Ramady is expected to rely on three new signings in the team's lineup against Al-Zamalek, led by midfield duo Mody Nasser and Ali Hamdy.
