CAIRO: Manuel Jose warned Ahly players against complacency when they take on Zamalek in the CAF Champions League next week.
Group A leaders Ahly are almost ensured of a semi-finals qualification, while Zamalek have to win this game in order to qualify.
The Reds were superior over their archrivals throughout the past four seasons, and they only need a draw on Sunday to book their semifinals place for the fourth straight year.
We should treat the game seriously, it will be a difficult game, we are aiming to strengthen our position on top of the group, Jose was quoted by Ahly s official site.
Zamalek should not be underestimated, they have no option but to win. We must be aware that they will play like a wounded lion.
Zamalek will be without skipper Ayman Abdel-Aziz and defender Wissem El Abdi, as the duo were cautioned in the 3-0 defeat at ASEC Mimosas.
Meanwhile, Junior Agogo has returned from Ghana after missing Monday s training session.
