Pyramids FC v Gor Mahia: CAF Champions League date, kick-off time and TV channel

Pyramids FC return to CAF Champions League action on Sunday when they host Gor Mahia in the second leg of the first preliminary round.

The Egyptian side go into the match with a two-goal advantage after winning the first meeting 2-0 in Kenya. They will now look to complete the tie at the Egyptian Air Defense Stadium and continue their progress in Africa’s leading club competition.

The match is scheduled for Sunday, 13 September, with kick-off at 20:00 local time. It will be broadcast on ON Sport.

Pyramids FC have also made a perfect start to their Egyptian Premier League campaign. Their latest domestic result was a 1-0 victory over El Gouna in the fourth round, maintaining their 100% record in the league.

That win came after the club had already established a strong position in the Champions League tie. Pyramids FC’s success in the first leg in Kenya means Gor Mahia must overturn a two-goal deficit in the return fixture if they are to progress.

The second-leg meeting in Cairo therefore represents an important opportunity for Pyramids FC to build on both their continental and domestic form. A draw would be enough for the Egyptian club to advance, while a one-goal defeat would also leave them ahead on aggregate.

Gor Mahia, meanwhile, need a significant response after being beaten 2-0 at home in the opening match. Their task is to score at least twice away from home while preventing Pyramids FC from extending their aggregate advantage.

The fixture is part of the first preliminary round of the CAF Champions League, with the result deciding which side moves forward in the competition. Pyramids FC’s recent league victory over El Gouna has ensured that they arrive at the return leg with confidence, while their first-leg result has placed them in control of the tie.

All attention will now turn to the Egyptian Air Defense Stadium on Sunday evening, where Pyramids FC will attempt to finish the job against Gor Mahia. The match begins at 20:00 and is available to viewers on ON Sport.
