It's no vacation for neither Ittihad nor Future FC as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Future play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Al Ittihad (placed 4th). World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Maher when Mohsen scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 59th minute.
A defeat, in the CAF Confederations Cup away at Pyramids FC, earlier.
