While all of Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia participated with their 2007/08 league champions and cup winners (in the case of Morocco, losing cup finalists MAS Fès as FAR Rabat won the double), the reason for Al-Masry's entry in the Cup Winners Cup for Egypt is entirely unclear.

NB: rationale behind Al-Masry representing Egypt unclear; they were eliminated in the 1/8 finals of the 2007/08 domestic cup and finished 9th in the Egyptian league; their last (and only) cup dates back to 1998.
