Egypt's starting line-up for the friendly against Uganda included nine players from either Ahli or Zamalek. Bob Bradley's team are about to take on African minnows Uganda as part of a five-day camp in Sudan, with the majority of regular internationals back on board. Veteran keeper Essam Al-Hadari regained his place between the posts, with Ahli duo Ahmed Fathi and Mohamed Naguib teaming up with Zamalek's Mohamed Abdul-Shafi and Mahmoud Fathallah in a four-man backline. Ahli captain Hossam Ghaly joins club-mates Mohamed Abou-Treika and Walid Soliman in midfield, which also includes Zamalek's Shikabala and Ibrahim Salah. Harras Hodoud striker Ahmed Mekki plays as a lone forward upfront.
