The Red Devils sit at the top of the log, with six points from a combined twelve, and a defeat might hinder their hopes of making it to the knockout stages.

Al Ahly head into this competition after being knocked out by Mamelodi Sundowns in the African Football League but are the present defending champions in this tournament. 

The reverse leg ended in a (3-0) commanding for Al Ahly victory over Medeama SC. The Mauves and Yellows have not been tidy at the back in this competition after conceding eight times and also scoring the least goals. Medeama SC's last two games have seen them concede on their ground. At the same time, Al Ahly have not been playing at their level in this campaign. They have scored four times and are yet to record a goal in their last two games.

This game will undoubtedly produce goals as we believe the home team will come out to express themselves, which might cause them to concede and likewise get a goal. Both teams are capable of finding the back of the net, and we are trusting this game to produce more than two goals for 2.27.

We expect the home side to take advantage of Al Ahly, who didn't really settle in well after complaining about difficulties in travelling. We anticipate a win or draw and over 1.5 goals for the hosts for 2.95.

We expect both sides to get a goal apiece for 2.07.

Good luck!
