Defending African Cup of Nations champions Egypt kick off Group C action with a game against Cameroon that is potentially full of explosive action.

The Pharaohs will want to ensure safe passage to the quarterfinals and Cameroon may prove to be a stumbling block. Coach Hassan Shehata is already without the services of experienced duo Ahmed Salama and Mohsin Hindawi. The former has sustained a thigh injury; while the latter is due to undergo surgery for liver issues.

Striker Ahmed Hassan “Mido” is also missing through injury and Egypt may just find themselves short of firepower in the deciding stages of African Cup of Nations live. However Middlesbrough midfielder Mohamed Shawky is fit and is expected to make the first 11.

Last time Egypt defeated Ivory Coast in the final via a penalty shootout to lift the coveted trophy at home. They began preparations for the Cup with a 3-0 win over Namibia in a friendly game.

Four-time winners Cameroon are expected to pose a stiff challenge to Egypt's dreams of retaining their title. The Indomitable Lions have big names including Barcelona striker Samuel Eto’o and Joseph Desire Job who plays for the French League side Nice.

Coach Otto Pfister was forced to cancel the side's training camp in Kenya following a spurt of violence there.
