Zamalek made their worst start to the Egyptian League season since 2014 after holding a goalless draw with El Entag El Harby at Al Salam Stadium on Tuesday.

The White Knights failed to achieve any victory since they defeat Pyramids on December 12 with two unanswered goals at Cairo International stadium.

The Whites lost twelve points since the start of the League as they secured the victory in four clashes, drew in three and lost two others. They now rank fourth with fifteen points, but they have a postponed encounter versus Al Ahly.

In 2014, the White Knights, under the leadership of Ahmed Hossam "Mido," made the worst start to the season after pulling off four victories, drawing in two and losing three other clashes in the first nine encounters.

Zamalek are set to fly to Zambia, where they will face Zesco United on Saturday at 15:00 (CLT) in the CAF Champions League group stage.

The five-time African champions were drawn in Group A, alongside C.D. Primeiro de Agosto, ZESCO United F.C (Zambia), and TP Mazembe (DR Congo).

The whites suffered a 0-3 defeat from TP Mazembe in the opening game of the group stage, before defeating Primeiro de Agosto with two unanswered goals in the second round.
