Al-Hilal, the reigning Asian and Saudi champions, will face freshly crowned Egyptian Premier League winners Zamalek in the Lusail Super Cup match, which will be contested at Qatar's largest stadium for the 2022 World Cup.

On September 9, the game will be played at Doha's 80,000-plus capacity Lusail Iconic Stadium.

Zamalek had previously defeated Al-Hilal 2-1 in the Saudi-Egyptian Super Cup at King Saud University Stadium in Riyadh in October 2018.

Hamdi Al-Naqaz and Kabongo Kasongo scored for the Cairo giants, while Omar Khribin scored for Al-Hilal.

The two clubs first met in the 1989 Arab Cup Winners' Cup, which finished in a 1-1 tie.
