Club Africain, Rivers Utd battle for top spot in TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup action

The TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup resumes on Wednesday, 20 December with another dose of high-octane African club football lined up across the continent.

A total of eight fixtures mark the resumption of the competition which will be Match Day 4 as the race towards a place in the quarter-finals heats up.

One of the marquee fixtures for the week will be a battle for the number one spot in Group C as Nigeria’s Rivers United travel to Tunis to face Club Africain.

The two sides met last week with the result going 1-0 in favour of United which interestingly sees the two sides equally tied on points, goals scored and conceded.

In another tie up north, Egypt’s Modern Future welcome USM Alger who have been in fine form as they look to defend their title.

The Algerian giants have collected maximum points in all their three matches, boasting clean sheets in all their encounters and will be looking at maintaining this impressive run.

In South Africa, SuperSport United must get a victory against Al Hilal Benghazi of Libya should they harbourany hopes of progressing further.

Unlike their Pretoria counterparts, Mamelodi Sundowns, United are yet to collect a single point in their previous three matches as they languish at the bottom of Group A.
