Moataz Eno and Ahmed Belal returned to Ahli's squad for Wednesday's Egyptian Cup clash with Harras Hodoud.

The duo is yet to make the squad since the 2008 Club World Cup in Japan, where they also failed to make an appearance with the Red Devils.

Egypt international striker Belal was out of favor for Manuel Jose in recent weeks, but finally returns to the squad at the expense of Osama Hosni.

Eno's inclusion is intended to make up for the absence of key midfielder Hossam Ashour, who is ruled out with a thigh problem.

The 24-year-old sustained the injury in Ahli's 1-0 win at Ismaili last weekend, and Jose opted not to risk him ahead of next week's Cairo derby with Zamalek.

Ahli Squad

Goalkeepers: Amir Abdul-Hamid, Ramzi Saleh
