Gomaa was excluded due to automatic suspension after collecting his fourth caution in the Red Devils' 2-1 victory over Harras Hodoud on Tuesday.

On the other hand, Abdul-Fadil was omitted due to 'technical reasons'.

"I will miss the game for technical reasons. I'm not injured and I haven't received three yellow cards," he told FilGoal.com.

"I don't really know why I was excluded but of course I fully respect the technical staff's decision."

Midfield pair Mohamed Barakat and Hossam Ashour were named for the game after reaching full recovery.

Mercurial player Barakat missed Ahli's 2-2 draw at Ittihad and the victory over Harras Hodoud as a result of a nagging knee problem.

Holding midfielder Ashour was also kept on the sidelines for the last four matches with an ankle injury.

Goalie Ahmed Adel has also shaken off a long-lasting knee injury to make the squad for the Contractors match.

With Adel and Sherif Ekrami unavailable for weeks through injury, Mahmoud Aboul-Saoud has been regularly standing between the sticks.

Inexperienced goalie Mohamed Mokhtar was expectedly left out of the squad.

Ahli's caretaker coach Abdul-Aziz Abdul-Shafi 'Zizo' once again added youngster Rami Hesham 'Rabiea' to the 18-man list.

Rabiea, 17, made his senior team debut against Contractors and was quite impressive.

Ahli's squad:

Goalkeepers: Mahmoud Aboul-Saoud, Ahmed Adel

Defenders: Ahmed Fathi, Sayed Moawad, Ahmed Al-Sayed, Mohamed Samir, Hossam Ghaly, Afrotto

Midfielders: Moataz Eno, Shehab Ahmed, Rabiea, Hossam Ashour, Mohamed Shawky, Moahmed Abou-Treika, Mohamed Barakat, Ahmed Shokri

Strikers: Mohamed Fadl, Geddo
