TP Mazembe Englebert(DR Congo) v IZK Ittihad khemiset( Morocco)

Pick 1: HOME WIN @ 1.65 7/10

Pick 2: over 2.5 goals @ 1.95 5/10

All at BWIN

REASON:

I have watched IZK Ittihad as they played against Ghanaian side Kotoko and elimated them via the away goal rule. They lost 1-3 in Ghana and won 2-0 via bizzare officiating in the return leg in Morocco. I must admit they are a very poor side and i just cannot believe they managed to oust Kotoko from the Champions league. They travel to DR Congo where top teams dread going due to the intimidating atmosohere and treatment meted out to opponents by their host. Nonetheless TP have a very solid team and they form the core of the main national team of DR Congo. Sincerely speaking i see TP mazembe giving IZK a big whipping. IZK are even struggling in their own domestic league.

CAF CONFERDERATION CUP

Book closes at 1100 at Bwin.

Club Sportive Sfaxien(Tunisia) v Jeunesse Club Abidjan (Ivory Coast)

Pick: Home win @ 1.90 Bwin 5/10

CS Sfaxien like all North African sides are strong at home and make sure they win their home encounters through fair or foul means. West African sides do not particularly fare well in North Africa and vice versa. CS Sfaxien are doing well in their domestic league and the Tunisia domestic league is a bit above the Ivorian league. I expect the home team to win this encounter.

TP Mazembe 1 IZK Itihad Khemiset 0

TP mazembe messed up glorious chances and the goalie of khemiset was simply the man of the match as he stood between TP Mazembe and the massacre.


CS Sfaxien 2 Jeunesse 0

kponkpa is this an International set of fixtures? arent these just club games? If so i will move oit to the Worldwide Football forum. It wil probably recieve more attention there too. good luck in whatever you back

I am sorry Komp, I got it wrong. CAF Champions League is the African version of the UEFA Champions league and the CAF Confederation Cup the version of the UEFA Cup. I will remember and post it in the Worldwide section next time as you rightly put it.
