AL Ahly SC (Egy) - Esperance Sportive De Tunis: Form Analysis
Al Ahly are the highest-ranked team in the CAF region and are featuring in their fifth consecutive CAF Champions League final this season. They are the current defending champions and will feel that they have got themselves in a very good position to earn the title for what would be a record-extending 12th time after coming away with a draw from Tunisia last week. In a match that delivered only a single shot on target, the Red Devils managed 47% possession and defended their goal impeccably, denying their opponents a single clear-cut chance across the 90. With that, the Egyptian Premier League outfit have now kept clean sheets in each of their last nine Champions League matches and are yet to concede a single goal at home in this competition. Shutting out their opponents will be the primary goal here for Al Ahly, as away goals could still play a major role in the outcome, as we saw in the Confederation Cup final last weekend.
On the other hand, while ES Tunis would have hoped for a lead coming into this leg, they will be fairly content with their clean sheet last weekend, as a score draw or better in this match will be enough to see them lift the title. The last time they did so was back in the 2018-19 campaign when they beat Wydad AC 2-1 on aggregate. The Smiling One will also be out for revenge here after they were knocked out of this competition by this opponent in the semi-final last season. Like their opponents, ES Tunis have relied heavily on their defence in this competition. They have also recorded nine consecutive clean sheets heading into this match and have only been breached once in 13 CAF Champions League matches this season. In addition, the visitors are unbeaten in their last four away games in the competition and lost just once, against Al Hilal on the road during the group stages. ES Tunis have failed to beat this opponent in their last five attempts and are the underdogs in this one, according to the bookmakers.

AL Ahly SC (Egy) & Esperance Sportive De Tunis Squad Analysis
Al Ahly endured a blow in the first leg, with Ali Maaloul suffering an injury and lasting just seven minutes before he was withdrawn. The Tunisian defender has been flagged as a major doubt for this match which should see Karim Fouad step into the defensive quartet in his absence. Maaloul will be joined on the treatment table by Ahmed Abdelkader, Amr El Solia and Cristo, all of whom are ruled out with muscle injuries.
ES Tunis have no fresh injury concerns and Miguel Cardoso is likely to maintain the 4-2-3-1 formation he deployed at home last week. Yan Sasse has been the main attacking threat for ES Tunis in this competition, scoring three goals to date, and he will be a player to keep an eye on in this one.
AL Ahly SC (Egy) - Esperance Sportive De Tunis Key Points
