Al Masry captain, Hassan Ali, is confident his side will get the maximum points when they face Nigerian giants Enyimba in the reverse fixture of their Group D CAF Confederation Cup clash at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Sunday.
Currently second in the group with one win, two draws, and one loss, Al Masry holds a one-point advantage over Enyimba, who have a record of one win, two losses, and a draw from their four matches.
Following a 2-0 victory over Enyimba in the first leg at the Suez Stadium, their sole win in the group, Al Masry are looking to earn their second win in the group, which would give them a healthy advantage over Enyimba in the race to qualify for the quarter-final stage of the competition.
Enyimba, having experienced a slow start to the competition, have recently shown signs of improvement with a 4-1 victory over Mozambique’s Black Bulls and a 2-2 draw against Egyptian giants and group leaders, Zamalek.
