Shikabala was left out of last week's win over Petrojet as he had a personal problem, according to Zamalek's official site.

But the 23-year-old is now ready to spearhead the White Knights in the rescheduled Egyptian Premier League clash.

Mohamed Al-Morsi returned to the squad at the expense of Ivorian striker Ollie Koffi.
