Ahli will rest six key players for Tuesday's Egyptian Cup tie with third division Kima Aswan. Although midfield ace Mohamed Abou-Treika is included, Emad Meteb, Ahmed Fathi, Wael Gomaa, Sayed Moawad, Geddo and goalkeeper Ahmed Adel have all been left out. Midfielder Moataz Eno was dropped again for no apparent reason, while Mohamed Barakat is ruled out with a broken arm. New signings Mohamed Naguib, Walid Soliman, Al-Sayed Hamdi and Ahmed Shedid all made the squad, with the latter set for his returning debut. Ahli are expected to face no problems beating their lower division opponents as they gear up for a crucial Champions League clash at Wydad Casablanca next week.
