Title holders Ahly are expected to navigate an easy passage to the African Champions League group stage when they host Niger’s Champions Sonidep on Tuesday in the return leg of round 32 at Ahly El-Salam Stadium.
Following their 1-0 away win two weeks ago, the nine-time African Champions should have a walk in the park in Cairo against Sonidep, who are making only their third appearance in the Champions League and did not manage to reach the last 16 in their previous two participations.
