KO at 19:00 Cairo Local Time
After their elimination from the CAF Champions League, Ahly will host Tunisian side Club Africain in the CAF Confederation Cup round of 16.
Ahly will face a tough test against the Tunisian side as the Cairo giants are missing a number of key players due to injuries.
The CAF Confederation Cup title-holders will have to do without a host of key figures such as forwards Walid Soliman and Momen Zakaria, rising winger Mohamed Hani, and midfielder Hossam Ashour, who have been ruled out due to injuries. Right-back Bassem Ali will also miss the game due to a suspension.
“We are trying to find tactical solutions. I will have to shuffle the team and maybe use some players in different positions to their natural roles to fill the gaps,” Ahly coach Fathi Mabrouk was quoted as saying on the club’s official website.
