Shehab was on international duty with the Egypt U-20 team as he missed Ahli’s recent friendly tour, along with Ahmed Shokri, and Afrotto.
Shokri was the only one to make the squad though as the Reds regain the services of Egypt forward Geddo, who has been nursing a hamstring injury of late.
Goalkeeper Mahmoud Aboul-Saoud was included after recovering from a pelvic problem and is expected to be on the bench.
Mauritanian striker Dominique da Silva is set to make his competitive debut for the Egyptian champions, while Liberian Francis Doe missed out.
