ASO Chlef faces a crucial challenge this Friday as they travel to Tunis to take on Club Africain in the second leg of the CAF Cup round of 16 at the Rades Stadium. With the first leg ending in a 1-1 draw, the Algerian side must now secure a positive result away to advance to the group stage and salvage their season.
Coach Mohamed Benchouia will be without Zaoui (injured) and Badarou (suspended), but otherwise has his full squad ready for this important Maghreb derby, which carries high stakes for both teams.
Despite the tough task, ASO Chlef remains confident and determined to pull off a spectacular victory against the Tunisian Ligue 1 leaders. According to El Watan, Benchouia highlighted the players’ focus on delivering a strong performance in Tunis to secure qualification and prepare well for the upcoming decisive Algerian Ligue 1 match against MCEE on May 9 in Chlef.
