CAF Champions League Final
Alaa was highly criticized after the game against Al Ahly as he was behind Al Ahly's winning goal.
The winner of tonight's final will represent Africa in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, scheduled in Japan next December.
The final has been held as a single match at a venue pre-selected by CAF and this year Casablanca was the destination after Cairo hosted last year's final.
Al Ahly players performed their first training in Casablanca on Wednesday at Kahramaa training ground, which will also host the team's training session on Thursday.
The Moroccan Ministry of Health refused to allow fans to attend the game amid COVID-19 restrictions.
Al-Ahly has a brilliant history with Espérance as they achieved victory against the Tunisian giants six times during their 16 games against each other.
