Senegalese side ASC Jaraaf of Dakar is set to host USM Alger next Sunday at the Abdoulaye Wade Stadium in Diamniadio in the second matchday of the 2024/25 CAF Confederation Cup group stage. The highly anticipated match will kick off at 16:00 GMT.
This encounter marks Jaraaf’s first home game in the competition, taking place at Senegal’s only certified stadium.
The stakes are high for the Senegalese side, as they seek to recover from a disappointing start to the tournament, having lost their opening match.
Additionally, Jaraaf recently settled for a 1-1 draw against Wallydaan in the domestic league, conceding an equalizer just five minutes before the final whistle.
In contrast, USM Alger, the reigning champions, arrive with considerable momentum following a resounding 6-0 victory against Botswana’s Orapa United in their opening match.
With confidence soaring from their commanding performance, the Algerian side aims to maintain their winning streak and solidify their status as contenders in this prestigious continental tournament.
Both teams are eager for a crucial victory.
