In the last Group D match of the CAF Champions League, CR Belouizdad will take on Ghanaian champions Medeama SC in Algiers, while Al Ahly SC and Young Africans, already qualified for the knockout stage, clash in the other fixture.
Despite being out of contention, Belouizdad seeks to avenge their prior loss to Medeama.
Meanwhile, Medeama aims for a strong finish and the possibility of securing third place by upsetting Belouizdad, who, reeling from a 4-0 defeat to Young Africans, are determined to salvage pride.
The match will unfold at Algiers’ Stade 5 Juillet 1962 at 16:00 GMT.
Medeama seeks redemption after struggling in away games during the preliminary round but faces a tough challenge against Belouizdad.
The Algerian champions, fueled by a desire to restore their reputation, are eager to rebound from recent setbacks.
With both teams concluding their Champions League campaign, the encounter promises to be intense, each side driven by distinct motivations in this final group stage showdown.
Medeama’s head coach Nebojsa Kapor is anticipated to make several changes to the lineup following their narrow loss to Al Ahly last Friday in Kumasi, with former Ghana League top scorer Diawisie Taylor potentially making his full debut in the Yellow and Mauves shirt.
