Sundowns' winning start in Group B came to an end two weeks ago after playing to a 2-2 draw against the Egyptian giants in Cairo.
Rulani Mokwena's side will enter the clash in second spot in the group after Al-Hilal defeated Coton Sport on Tuesday afternoon.
The Brazilians were last in action seven days ago when they played to a 1-1 draw against Stellenbosch FC, which ended their 16-game winning run in the league.
Al Ahly, meanwhile, got their campaign up and running with a 2-0 win over Coton Sport last weekend, which was their first win in the group phase.
The ten-time African champions have also been boosted by the return of Ahmed Abdelkader and Khaled Abdelfattah for this afternoon's encounter.
The Cairo Red Devils are yet to secure a victory against Sundowns in South Africa, having registered three draws and two losses.
Here's how they line up:
Mamelodi Sundowns: Williams, Kekana, Mudau, Mvala, Modiba, Mokoena, Allende, Zwane, Mailula, Maema, Shalulile
