The draw for the Round of 16 in the Tunisian Cup will proceed on Wednesday, April 9, at 15:00 GMT, despite one remaining fixture in the Round of 32 yet to be played.
The Tunisian Football Federation (FTF) confirmed the schedule for the ceremony, which will set the stage for the next phase of the competition.
The final Round of 32 tie, featuring ES Tunis and AS Kasserine, is scheduled for Wednesday, April 16.
Nevertheless, the FTF has opted not to delay the draw, and the outcome of that match will be slotted accordingly once the result is known.
On Tuesday, CS Hammam-lif secured their place in the last 16, joining an already robust lineup of clubs that includes US Monastir, Club Africain, ES Zarzis, and Stade Tunisien.
Also advancing are ES Sahel, CS Sfaxien, AS Soliman, US Ben Guerdane, EGS Gafsa, AS Gabès, AS Jelma, CS Msaken, JS Kairouan, and JS Manouba.
With several top-flight clubs already in the draw, fans are anticipating potentially explosive encounters in the next round.
The presence of traditional heavyweights such as Club Africain and CS Sfaxien, alongside determined underdogs like JS Manouba and AS Jelma, adds a layer of unpredictability to the competition.
As the draw unfolds, all eyes will also be on the yet-to-be-determined fixture between ES Tunis—one of the nation’s most decorated sides—and AS Kasserine.
The result of that encounter could significantly influence the tournament’s trajectory.
The Tunisian Cup remains one of the country’s most prestigious domestic competitions, offering smaller clubs the opportunity to challenge elite sides and dream of glory.
With 15 teams already confirmed, the forthcoming draw will formally map out the path to the quarter-finals, intensifying the excitement for fans and teams alike.
Supporters and club representatives are expected to attend the draw ceremony, which will be broadcast live, ensuring transparency and building anticipation for the next phase of the tournament.
