Harras Hodoud's assistant coach Abou-Taleb Al-Essawi warned his players off easing up against Dedebit in the CAF Confederation Cup round of 32 despite their first leg advantage.

The Alexandrian outfit battered Dedebit 4-0 in the first leg at home on 20 March and are deemed favorites to book a berth in the next round.

However, Al-Essawi is convinced that his men shouldn't feel superior while facing the Ethiopian minnows away on Saturday.

"The coaching staff sat down with the players after today's training session and we stressed that they shouldn't look down on the Ethiopian team," Al-Essawi told FilGoal.com.

"We underlined the fact that we only played one leg and we need to end the second in the same way."

The Confederation Cup title is yet to be claimed by an Egyptian side.
