Ahly and Zamalek will face off in the United Arab of Emirates again after the Egyptian Football Association revealed that the domestic Super Cup will be played in the Gulf country on 10 February.

EFA official Amer Hussein told reporters on Sunday that the Super Cup will take place in UAE for the second time in less than two years.

In the summer of 2015, Ahly defeated perrenial rivals Zamalek 3-2 in an exciting game at Al Ain's Hazza bin Zayed Stadium.

Ahly are the record holders of the Super Cup with nine titles. Zamalek have won it only twice.

According to Hussein, the domestic league will resume on 12 February, a few days after the end of the Africa Cup of Nations that will start on 14 January.
