Money-wise the Brazilian Fluminense squad is 3-4 times more valuable, but as the match is played in Arab environments it can be seen almost as a home ground for the Egyptian club El-Ahly.

Fluminense have had a short break of two weeks after they finished their local season, it did not end well, they finished 7th and lost their last two Serie A games. However they won the Copa Libertadores a few weeks earlier by beating Boca Juniors after extra time in Rio de Janeiro, and a lot of the poor season is forgiven.

Fluminense are in a good position injury-wise as they miss only defender Jorge, but they can field in Marcelo - you may remember him from Real Madrid - Nino, Arias, Andre... a lot of familiar household names already now, and some future stars. Centre-back Felipe Melo can not quite anymore be described as such as he has hit 40!

Top players of Fluminense by market value:

There is a plenty to choose from, and as striker German Cano is in top scoring form - 13 goals in 12 Libertadores matches - I am expecting a hungry and rested Fluminense side here, to take advantage of the fact that El-Ahly did already face A-Ittihad here 3 days ago, and won a tough and even match by 3-1.

The Egyptian team's players are less known, or do you know these players inside and out?

The highest rated Dieng is from Mali, and even if his career is still in upwards trend he has spent his adult years in this club. In fact, the best known figure of the club might be coach Marcel Koller with a strong background in midclass European clubs and, the Austrian national team.

The start in Egyptian league has been decent, 14 points after 6 games, but it is only decent, not super, and they have been suspicious on the road, they have conceded one goal in every game. Can they afford that, and maybe they concede more now when they a lot better and fully rested and motivated Fluminense squad?

Fluminense to score 2 or 3 goals here, it is most likely enough for win, and for the final on Sunday, which, I dare to say, is against Manchester City who face Japanese club in their semifinal.

在资金方面，巴西弗鲁米嫩塞队的价值是他们的3-4倍，但由于比赛在阿拉伯环境中进行，它几乎可以被视为埃及俱乐部El-Ahly的主场。

弗鲁米嫩塞在本地赛季结束后休息了两周，但结果并不好，他们排名第七，输掉了最近两场意甲比赛。然而，几周前，他们在里约热内卢的加时赛中击败博卡青年队，赢得了解放者杯，这个赛季的糟糕表现是可以原谅的。

弗鲁米嫩塞在伤病方面处于有利的位置，他们只缺后卫豪尔赫，但他们可以有马塞洛——你可能还记得他在皇马的时候——尼诺、阿里亚斯、安德烈……现在已经有很多熟悉的家喻户晓的名字，还有一些未来的明星。中后卫费利佩·梅洛已经40岁了，不能再用这样的方式来形容他了!

弗鲁米嫩塞市值顶级球员:

有很多人可以选择，德国前锋卡诺在解放者队的12场比赛中打进13球，我期待着一个饥饿和休息的弗鲁米嫩塞，利用三天前阿赫利已经在这里面对伊蒂哈德的事实，并以3-1赢得了一场艰难而平稳的比赛。

埃及队的球员不太为人所知，还是你对这些球员了如指掌?

评价最高的迪昂来自马里，即使他的职业生涯仍然处于上升趋势，他也在这个俱乐部度过了他的成年时光。事实上，该俱乐部最知名的人物可能是在欧洲中产阶级俱乐部和奥地利国家队拥有强大背景的教练马塞尔科勒。

埃及联赛的开局还算不错，6场比赛拿到14分，但也只是还算不错，算不上超级，而且他们在客场一直很可疑，每场比赛都丢一个球。他们能承受得起这样的损失吗?也许他们现在丢的球更多了，因为他们的阵容更好，休息得更充分，更有动力。

弗鲁米嫩塞在这里能进2到3个球，就很有可能赢得比赛，而周日的决赛，我敢说，是对阵曼城，他们将在半决赛中面对日本俱乐部。
