With Match Day 6 scheduled for next weekend to make up the final eight (8) that will aim to dethrone USM Alger, Group B (Zamalek, Abu Salem) and D (RS Berkane, Stade Malien) has been decided with a game to spare, which sees all eyes cast on Group A and D to battle for the three remaining spots.
In Group A, Egypt’s Modern Future need a mere point to take them through but will be up against a highly spirited, Al Hilal Benghazi who could topple them from second place should they get the away win.JAMB Portal
An interesting scenario has presented itself in Group C where leaders, Dreams FC of Ghana, who are on 12 points face Rivers United of Nigeria who are three points behind them.
Tunisian side, Club Africain are also on 9 points and face the already eliminated Academica do Lobito of Angola in Tunisia, who may want to bow out of the competition in style by causing a major upset against the more fancied Tunisians at home.
