The Egyptian champions have only four strikers at their disposal in Francis Doe, Mohamed Fadl, Mohamed Talaat and Lebanese international Mohamed Ghaddar.

Fadl and Doe are both ruled out of Sunday's showdown with respective injuries, which further limited Al-Badri's choices.

However, the former Ahli assistant coach says his team's lack of firepower does not worry him.

"We have no problems upfront,"Al-Badri was quoted as saying by the Red Devils’ official site.

"We can overcome the absence of Fadl and Doe."

In Ahli's Egyptian Premier League opener, Al-Badri played Mohamed Talaat as a lone hitman. Ghaddar, who's yet to prove his worth at the Cairo club, replaced him after the interval.

Ahli play their next CAF Champions League game at Kabylie on Sunday.

A victory would hugely bolster Ahli's chances of reaching the semi-finals. They lie in Group B second spot on four points, two adrift of leaders Kabylie.
