The upcoming fixture at Nelson Mandela Stadium sees CR Belouizdad hosting Singida Black Stars, both eager to take advantage of this early stage in the CAF Confederation Cup. CR Belouizdad’s disciplined defense and organized midfield could prove to be the deciding factor against Singida’s swift counter-attacks. Singida’s recent form indicates resilience and attacking intent, but defensively they have been somewhat vulnerable, which CR Belouizdad will look to exploit.

Singida is likely to line up in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3, focusing on quick transitions and exploiting the flanks.
