CAIRO – 28 August 2018: Al-Ahy hosts Uganda’s Kampala City on Tuesday night at Borg El-Arab Stadium at the last game of CAF Champions League group stage games.

Al-Ahly needs to achieve victory to secure top spot at the group to avoid tough clashes with other group leaders at quarter finals.

Al-Ahly and Espérance secured their spots at the Champions League quarter finals.

Al-Ahly is set to miss the team wingers, Walid Soliman for accumulation of cards and Mido Gaber for injury.

Ahmed Hamoudi and Eslam Mohareb are expected to replace Soliman and Gaber.

Al-Ahly players bounced back at CAF Champions League and they are leading their group after a frustrating start.

Al-Ahly started the group stage with a goalless draw at home against Tunisia’s Espérance and they lost 2-0 away to Kampala City.

Al-Ahly returned to the right track by two straight victories over Botswana’s Township Rollers at home and in Botswana before defeating Espérance 1-0 in Tunisia.

The game starts at 9 p.m.
