Revealed Egypt XI to face Ivory Coast - Salah leads the attack

The Al Ahly gloveman has managed to keep clean sheets in his last two games.

Now he will be coming up against lethal Ivorian attackers like Sebastien Haller, Nicolas Pepe, Franck Kessie, Wilfried Zaha and others.

Kamal has been moved from the wing-back position to the right side of the midfield.

The Zamalek man is back after missing the last two matches due to injury.

His return condemns Al Ahly's Ayman Ashraf to the bench.

As one of the senior players in this side and based on his vast experience, there are high expectations on Hegazy to lead from the back.

The 22-year-old was a surprise starter in the last match against Sudan in the absence of Zamalek's Mahmoud Hamdi El Wensh.

After grabbing the all-important goal which sank Sudan, Abdelmonem has been rewarded with a starting place.

After occupying the central midfield role in the last three games, the Al Ahly star has been switched to the right-back position.

The Arsenal midfielder has started all four of Egypt's matches in this tournament but much improvement is expected from him.

Fathi returns to start after coming on from the bench in the last two games where he played as a defensive midfielder.

The Liverpool star has not been scoring as many goals as he would like so far.

Perhaps coming up against the Ivorian stars will inspire him to be at his very best.

Having been used as a forward all along in this tournament, the Stuttgart man drops back to anchor the midfield.

The Galatasaray star will not be the centre-forward, a role he has played in the last two matches.
