Live: Getafe v Al Ahly | Friendly Match

The Red Devils will be hosted by Getafe today as part of their preparations for the new season.

Ahly are already shorn of eight key players, away with Egypt’s national team. Ahly’s Gabonese striker Malick Evouna will miss this friendly also. He will be away with the Gabon national team, also Ghanaian striker John Antwi recently sidelined for six weeks due to injury.

Ahly, holders of a record 36 Egyptian Premier League titles, failed to win a ninth successive title last season as arch-rivals Zamalek ended their 11-year drought.

The Reds are currently defending their Africa Confederation Cup title, recently qualifying for the semis alongside Zamalek, Etoile du Sahel and Orlando Pirates.

Fathi Mabrouk promised the Ahly fans a good display against the Spanish side and he and his team are aiming for a win in Spain.

Spanish club Getafe finished 14th in La Liga last season with 37 points.
