South African Clubs in Action
Orlando Pirates face a tough task when they host St Eloi Lupopo at Orlando Stadium, after suffering a 3-0 defeat in the first leg in Congo during the second preliminary round.
Meanwhile, Mamelodi Sundowns are in a commanding position following a 5-1 away victory over Remo Stars in Nigeria. It would take a major upset to deny the Tshwane giants a place in the group stages. Sundowns reached the CAF Champions League final last season, losing to Pyramids FC.
In the CAF Confederation Cup, Kaizer Chiefs will host AS Simba of Congo after earning a draw in the first leg last weekend.
Stellenbosch FC, who reached the semi-finals of last season’s tournament, also secured a goalless draw away to 15 de Agosto de Akonibe in Equatorial Guinea and will host the return leg at home this weekend.
