Midfielder Mwape Mwelwa will miss Zesco United’s 2016 CAF Champions League Group A penultimate clash away to Al Ahly this Friday.
Zesco depart for Cairo on Tuesday from Ndola.
Mwape is suspended for the match after receiving his second yellow on July 27 in Zesco’s 1-1 away draw against ASEC Mimosa of Cote d’ivoire in Abidjan following his initial caution in a 2-1 home win over Stade Malien on April 19.
However, midfielder Misheck Chaila is back after serving his suspension that saw him miss Zesco’s trip to ASEC while striker Idris Mbombo who missed the first leg meeting at home in Ndola against Al Ahly due to injury is in the travelling party.
Mbombo is Zesco’s top scorer in the Champions League with five goals.
Zesco beat Al Ahly 3-2 in the first leg meeting on June 18 at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium on match day one of the group round of games.
Zesco are 2nd in Group A level on 7 points with leaders Wydad Casablanca of Morocco whom they host in the final game on August 23 in Ndola.
Al Ahly, who are the record eight-time African champions, are 3rd on 4 points, level with bottom placed ASEC.
