The club are currently lying third in the competition's quarter final group A behind Ahli and ASEC Mimosas, and Yehia understands that it'll be a win or bust against their Cairo rivals.

"This isn’t just a derby game. It will determine our hopes of reaching the competition's semi-final, and despite the absentees we will only play to win," Yehia told FilGoal.com on Friday.

The Whites are facing a tough task as they enter the clash without the suspended duo of Ayman Abdul-Aziz and Wissem Abdi and the injured Mohamed Ibrahim.

"We will barely have 18 players ready for the game. Beside injuries and suspensions there are also few players who aren’t listed in the African squad," added Yehia.
