Marcel Koller, the head coach of Egypt’s Ahly football team, has received a comprehensive report on the upcoming opponents, CR Belouizdad, scheduled to face Ahly on February 16th in the fourth round of the group stage of the CAF Champions League.
This report aims to thoroughly study the Algerian team and identify their strengths and weaknesses to devise an effective strategy.
Ahly continues its preparations for the match after a prolonged absence from competitions due to the international break.
Koller has focused on enhancing the players’ physical fitness during this period to ensure they are not negatively affected by the extended league hiatus.
Notably, their opponents have been actively participating in the Algerian league, which has continued uninterrupted during the current international break due to the Africa Cup of Nations.
Khaled Bebo, Ahly’s Director of Football, and Sameer Adly, the team’s Administrative Director, are set to depart Cairo for Algeria on Sunday.
Their purpose is to ensure all arrangements for the team’s trip to Algeria are in order before the rest of the delegation arrives.
The match between Ahly and CR Belouizdad, part of the fourth round of the CAF Champions League group stage, is scheduled to take place on Friday, February 16, 2024, at the 5 July Stadium in Algiers, Algeria.
Kickoff is set for 7:00 PM GMT, 8:00 PM local time in Algeria and Morocco, 9:00 PM in Egypt, and 10:00 PM in Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
