The Egypt skipper failed to shrug off an injury he sustained in Thursday's 3-2 friendly win over Arab Contractors.

"I trained solely for the last couple of days hoping that I can catch the Hodoud game, but now it's confirmed that I won't be fit enough to play," Hassan told FilGoal.com.

Ahli will also have to do without defender Wael Gomaa, who's suspended for the game.

The Super Cup will be the Red Devils' first encounter under new coach Hossam Al-Badri.
