Ahly to face Berekim Chelsea without Meteb
Emad Meteb failed to recover from a hamstring injury
Meteb picked up a hamstring injury on Wednesday in training and has left in Cairo.
Al Ahly will also be without the services of veteran defender Wael Gomaa and Hossam Ashour due to card-suspensions.
Gomaa was sent off during Ahly's 4-1 victory over Chelsea at the Cairo Military two weeks ago.
Defensive midfielder Ashour received his second yellow card during the same match.
But the Red Devils have a formidable squad which includes Mohamed Barakat, Mohamed Abou-Trieka, Walid Soliman-who scored a double in the corresponding fixture.
Ahly squad:
Goalkeepers:Sherif Ekrami, Mahmoud Aboul-Sauod, Ahmed Adel
Defenders: Mohamed Najuib, Sherif Abdel-Fadil, Sayed Moawad, Ahmed Shedid, Ahmed Fathi, Ahmed Sedik, Ramy Rabia, Saad Samir
Midfielders: Hossam Ghaly, Trezeguet, Mohamed Barakat, Mohamed Abou-Trieka, Walid Soliman, Abdullah El-Saied, Mohamed Nagy "Gedo", Ahmed Shoukry
Strikers:Oussou Konan, Dominique Da Silva, El-Sayed Hamdy
