Al Ahly vs AC Leopards | African Super Cup 2013 Preview

Al Ahly (African champions) will meet AC Leopards ( Confederation Cup winners) of Congo in the African Super Cup 2013 on Saturday.

Spectators will be allowed to attend the game at the 86,000-seat Egyptian Army Stadium in Alexandria but poor ticket sales are threatening to leave large parts of the venue empty.

�Ahly are waiting for their fans to support the club and its technical staff to win the African Super Cup,� General Manager Mahmoud Allam said in a statement on the club�s official website.

�The amount of the tickets which were sold does not live up to our expectations. Our fans have always supported the team in such games.�

Forward Mohamed Nagy �Gedo� and right-back Ahmed Fathi joined English second-division side Hull City on loan until the end of the season while veteran playmaker Mohamed Abou-Treika moved to Emirati side Bani Yas as the club sought to allay their financial problems.

Key midfielders Hossam Ghaly and Walid Soliman also picked up serious knee injuries, leaving Ahly shorn of five regular players.

�This is an extremely important title. The CAF Super Cup is a title we want to win and victory will put our season on the right track. It would be great to win our fifth title,� Ahly coach Hossam El-Badry told CAF�s official website.
