The last two games of the CAF Champions League will be played on Saturday with two huge fixtures expected to be competitively contested.

Petro Luanda v TP Mazembe

In Luanda, the best defensive team so far in the season will host TP Mazembe. The first leg ended goalless as Petro was fully excited to have snatched that impressive draw. All eyes will be on the 38-year-old Angolan goalkeeper Hugo Marques who has kept 7 consecutive clean sheets for the Os Tricolores.

TP Mazembe created and squandered enough chances in the first leg and must be very clinical in Angola before they can score a goal.

Petro Lunada remain the favourites here but TP Mazembe has the experience to damage the Angolans.

 

Asec Mimosas v Esperance

The Ivorian side Asec Mimosas shocked everyone by securing a goalless draw in the first leg in Tunisia against Esperance. Heading into the first leg, Asec Mimosas were not in any good shape but managed to step up to secure a crucial draw in Rades.

At home in Abidjan, Asec has the home advantage to finish off the much-experienced Esperance de Tunis on Saturday night. The fixture can go either side as Asec has been poor lately but playing in the CAF Champions League comes with a different mentality.
