CAIRO, 30June 2019:In order to lead the group and ensure an easier route, in order to gain the confidence of the fans, all the things that Egypt are looking for in the match against Uganda.

Egypt face Uganda at Cairo stadium – 09:00 p.m. CLT in their last game in Group B. Egypt leads the group with 6 points, guaranteed qualifying after victory of DR Congo, and Uganda come second with four points from victory over DR Congo & draw against Zimbabwe.

Uganda, led by coach Sebastian Disabre, seem to be a tough opponent to Egypt this night. Both teams play their last game in the group. Uganda have been tough opponent for Egypt recently as both teams played three matches in the World Cup qualifiers & 2017 AFCON. Egypt defeated Uganda two times and lost one time.

Egypt are trying to secure the top spot in the first group, to ensure playing against a third-place team in the next round, and thus a relatively easier journey towards the title.The team need to win or draw at least to secure first place.

The Pharaohs also will play the game and hope not to see any yellow or red cards. Three players have to avoid suspension as if they take yellow card; they will miss the next round. They are Mahmoud Alaa, Mohamed Elneny and Aly Ghazal.

Winning earns the team confidence to present the best in the following matches. The win against Zimbabwe in the first game make Egypt present a better performance in the second encounter against the DRC, and now the search for a third victory will give the fans confidence in the players before the real start of the championship in the playoffs.
