Venue: Borg El Arab Stadium, Alexandria
Friendly game

Egypt are likely to field an almost full-strength side when they meet Guinea on Sunday as they gear up for their opening African Cup of Nations game against Zimbabwe five days later in Cairo.

The Pharaohs were unconvincing in their previous warm-up despite recording a 1-0 victory over Tanzania at Alexandria’s Borg El-Arab Stadium, having struggled to make their dominance count against feeble opponents.

Coach Javier Aguirre gave chances to some new faces against Tanzania, including Zamalek’s central defender Mahmoud Alaa and Pyramids FC midfielder Nabil Emad.

But the regular players are expected to take part against Guinea, including Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny and Liverpool star Mohamed Salah who were rested for the previous match.

The record seven-time African champions face Zimbabwe at Cairo Stadium on Friday before meeting DR Congo and Uganda in Group A of the Nations Cup.
