Preview: Egypt’s Ahly out to reach CL quarters and send warning to rivals

Three points is the only result defending African champions Al Ahly will accept from Saturday’s road encounter at Sudanese side Al-Merrikh in the CAF Champions League. Manager Pitso Mosimane wants Ahly to declare that they are “only out for wins home or away” and their opponents are ripe for the taking, only scoring one goal and conceding ten from their four games so far. Ahram previews Ahly’s first competitive game since mid-March.
