The Zambia U-20 mens National team will this afternoon face the Young Pharaohs of Egypt at the National Heroes Stadium, in the final Group A match of the on-going Total Under 20 Africa Cup of Nations Zambia 2017.
Zambia who are already through to the Semi-finals as group winners following their wins over Guinea and Mali are expected to face Egypt in what could be their sternest test in the tournament so far.
Despite cruising past Mali 6-1 to become the first team to book a place at the U-20 FIFA World Cup, the young Chipolopolo will have to beat Egypt convincingly if they are to put themselves among the contenders for the title.
Beston Chambeshi will be tempted to name a strong starting eleven for the clash against Egypt but it is expected that he will rest one or two of his stars and give other players a run.
Enock Mwepu, Emmanuel Banda Jnr, Fashion Sakala, Edward Chilufya and Paston Daka could all be rested to give Conlyde Luchanga and Chrispin Sakulanda some game time.
The remaining Group A fixtures will be played simultaneously at 15:00 CAT with Guinea and Mali facing off in Ndola at the Levy Mwanawasa stadium.
