Al Ahly, Al Hilal Omdurman and Esperance de Tunis will be looking to book their spots in the CAF Champions League quarter-finals with two matches to spare.
On Friday, defending champions Al Ahly will be away to CR Belouizdad in a Group C encounter at the Stade du 5 Juillet in Algiers in what will be the first match in the group stage matchday four.
Last season’s runners-up Esperance, on the other hand, will travel to the 30 June Stadium in Cairo where they square off with Pyramids FC in a Group D encounter on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Al Hilal Omdurman will play host to MC Alger in a Group A match at their temporary home ground, Cheikha Ould Boïdiya Stadium in Nouakchott on Sunday.
While Mamelodi Sundowns will edge closer to securing a spot in the quarter-finals if they claim a win over Raja Casablanca in a Group B clash at the Larbi Zaouli Stadium in Casablanca on Saturday.
Sundowns’ South African rivals, Orlando Pirates will also be keen to boost their quarter-final ambitions by defeating Stade d’Abidjan in Saturday’s Group C clash at the Orlando Stadium in Johannesburg.
