1995–96 Egyptian Premier League
Football league season
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
16 teams participated in the 1995–96 Egyptian Premier League season. The first team in the league was the champion, and was supposed to qualify to the CAF Champions League, but this did not happen as Al Ahly was boycotting the CAF competitions so the runner up Zamalek qualified instead. Al Ahly won the league for the 25th time in the club's history.[1][2]
