Masri's 2-0 North African Cup defeat at Bejaia on Friday was marred by shameful acts from the Egyptian club's technical staff towards match officials.
Coach Hossam Hassan was sent off for protesting, whereas his twin brother Ibrahim insulted the referee, assaulted the fourth official and most importantly made improper gestures towards the home crowd in Algiers.
Whilst the Masri football director instigated the fury of Algerian fans, his Ismaili counterpart is calm ahead of his side's away game.
"We do not fear the consequences of the Masri game, because our match is unlikely to witness too many spectators," Ismaili official Galal told FilGoal.com.
"The Algerian team officials and fans have already welcomed us warmly and did not seem bothered by the Friday-game incidents."
Ismaili will be without injured strikers Mohamed Fadl and Youssef Gamal against the Algerian outfit.
The Dervishes will be hoping to make up for their embarrassing Egyptian Cup exit at the hands of second division side Dakhlia.
