CAIRO – 23 October 2018: Al-Ahly will face ES Setif on Tuesday night at the CAF Champions League semi-finals' second leg in Stade 8 Mai, 1945 in Setif, Algeria.

Al-Ahly defeated ES Setif 2-0 at the first leg in Cairo thanks to two goals from Walid Soliman and Eslam Mohareb.

The Algerian team will count on their fans and the tough atmosphere at the stadium to achieve a historic comeback over Al-Ahly and reach the final.

Al-Ahly winger, Mido Gaber, is ready to support his teammates after he missed the first leg in Cairo due to an injury. Ahmed Fathy has also recovered from the injury he picked at the last training session in Cairo.

“All the players are ready for the game and they all participated in the training session in Algeria,” Al-Ahly's doctor, Khaled Mahmoud, said on Monday night.

Al-Ahly’s expected line-up for the game consists of: Mohamed el-Shenawy, Ahmed Fathy, Saad Samir, Salif Coulibally, Ayman Ashraf, Hossam Ashour, Amr el-Solia, Mido Gaber, Walid Soliman, Ahmed Hamoudi and Walid Azarro.

Al-Ahly fans put their hopes on the players to reach the final and achieve the title after they lost last year’s final to Wydad Casablanca.

The game starts at 9 p.m.
