Ivorian striker Vincent Die Foneye put the hosts in front in the 20th minute with a well-placed header to take his tally to seven goals this season.

Ayman Saied doubled the lead three minutes after the break when he scored from a rebound before Ahmed Al-Muhammadi ensured the win in the 83rd minute.

The result left Baladeya third from bottom in the league table with 20 points, two adrift of the safety zone.

Baladeya could also fall to the bottom when Telecom Egypt and Suez, who also have 20 points, face each other on Thursday.

ENPPI, who will meet Zamalek in the Egyptian Cup final on May 25th, moved to seventh spot on 32 points.
