CAIRO: Gouna boss Ismail Youssef believes that Monday s game with Zamalek will be a stern challenge for his team.
The coastal club host the White Knights on Friday in the Egyptian Premier League, with the latter team determined to get back to winning ways.
Zamalek, who lie third with 37 points, had an eight-match winning streak ended upon drawing at Ismail 0-0.
Youssef expects that the Cairo side will come on with all guns blazing against Gouna.
Facing Zamalek is always a tough task, and it s way tougher this time around, he told FilGoal.com.
Zamalek have been at their best for several weeks, while Gouna are struggling in the bottom half of the league table.
Sixteen-placed Gouna, whose first top-flight campaign has been anything but impressive this season, are now in the relegation zone with 21 points.
