Notes
edit- ^ Since the 2022–23 Egypt Cup wasn't finished by the time of the Egyptian Super Cup, the third placed-team in the Egyptian Premier League, Zamalek, was originally planned to enter the competition. However, the club was excluded due to their withdrawal from the previous edition.[4][5] As a result, Modern Future, the highest-ranked team in the league not qualified to the Super Cup, was chosen to enter the competition.
