Al Ahly’s striker Emad Meteb is back in the teams squad for Wednesdays league game at Masri while Wael Gomaa and Walid Soliman have been ruled out due to injury.
Meteb, Ahlys top-scorer with five goals, has been out of action for several weeks with a back problem but is now ready to regain his place in the Reds frontline.
The 28-year-old is set to replace the injured Dominique da Silva, who is ruled out for the remainder of the first half of the season after sustaining a hamstring injury last week.
Veteran Mohamed Barakat was named after recuperating from a calf injury that sidelined him for the last four league games.
Egypt center-half Gomaa misses out with a calf problem, while playmaker Soliman is struggling with a shoulder injury.
