THE PREDICTION
With AS Vita Club facing a tough encounter away at Group A leaders Simba, second-placed Al Ahly know that victory over Al Merrikh will almost certainly guarantee their place in the CAF Champions League knockout stage when taking into account their healthy goal difference. The visitors enjoyed a comfortable 3-0 triumph against Al Merrikh in the reverse fixture and will be confident of another positive result in Omdurman. Al Merrikh’s extremely fragile defence has proven costly in the group stage, with them having shipped ten goals over the course of their four group games so far, the worst of any team in the competition. Al Ahly have the attacking capabilities to take full advantage of such a weak backline and the superior quality within their side should see them record a vital three points that will surely be enough for knockout qualification.
