CAF Confederation Cup – All the Latest Updates

Looking for the freshest news on the CAF Confederation Cup? You’re in the right spot. We break down scores, fixtures and what’s happening with the clubs you love. No fluff, just the info you need to keep up with Africa’s second‑biggest club tournament.

How the tournament works

The Confederation Cup starts with a knockout round, then moves into a group stage of four groups. Each group has four teams that play home and away. The top two from each group head into the quarter‑finals, and from there it’s straight‑knockout to the final.

Every match counts – a win gives you three points, a draw one, and goal difference can decide who goes through if teams are level on points. That’s why you’ll see teams pushing hard even when the result looks safe.

What to watch this week

This week’s big games feature the North African side Al Ahly taking on West African underdogs AS Vita Club. Al Ahly’s experience usually gives them an edge, but AS Vita Club has loved upsetting bigger clubs before.

Also on the docket is the clash between Egyptian giants Zamalek and Tanzanian surprise package Simba SC. Zamalek’s attack is lethal, yet Simba’s quick counter‑play can catch anyone off guard.

Don’t miss the live stream if you can – the atmosphere in these stadiums is electric, and the goals are often spectacular. Keep an eye on the goal scorers list; players like Mohamed Salah (yes, the same one who shines in Europe) often pop up in the Confederation Cup.

Want to follow the standings? After this week’s round, the top of Group B looks tight with Al Ahly, AS Vita Club, and Zamalek all within a point of each other. A single win could tip the balance, so every match feels like a final.

If you’re curious about the format, the final is played over two legs – one home game for each finalist. That means the champion will have to be consistent both in front of their fans and away.
