Egypt's players celebrate a goal during the African Cup of Nations qualification match between Egypt and Nigeria in Kaduna, on March 25, 2016 (AFP)
Egypt's national team will head to Tanzania late Tuesday evening ahead of their upcoming 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Saturday.
Egypt, who are on the verge of reaching the Cup of Nations for the first time since 2010, will secure a place in next year's continental competition with any result better than a 4-0 loss to third-placed Tanzania in the fifth game of the competition.
Under the helms of Argentinean manager Hector Cuper, the seven-time African champions sit at the top of group G with seven points, five ahead of second-placed Nigeria and six clear of Tanzania.
