Esperance have been warned that South Africa international Percy Tau could be the player to decide the CAF Champions League final on Saturday night.
The first leg ended all square in Tunisia last weekend, leaving everything to play for in return leg at the Cairo International Stadium.
Tau has had a relatively quiet Champions League campaign compared to the previous seasons with the Red Devils.

However, former Egypt and Zamalek defender Beshir El Tabei says the Bafana Bafana attacker is the one player he fears in the Al Ahly attack.
"Percy Tau's crisis is that he is a temperamental player, but he will appear well in the next match," the former centre-back, said per Masr Times.
"There are matches in which the player transforms, and for this reason he gains the trust of his coach [Marcel] Koller.
"He is indispensable in the Al Ahly squad and at times he bites like a snake.
"He is one of the players that I fear, and he always favours Al Ahly in some matches."
The Egyptian Red Devils are also unbeaten in 21 games in the Champions League, a record which dates back to 2022 when they lost to Mamelodi Sundowns in the group stage phase.
Tau and his Al Ahly teammate will be going in search of a record-extending 12th CAF Champions League title.
