Zambian Champions Zesco United will face Guinea side Horoya FC in the next round of the CAF Champions League.
Emmanuel Mayuka’s Zamalek has a date against Douala of Cameroon while TP Mazembe will welcome the test of Ethiopian side St George.
Winstone Kalengo’s Congolese side AC Leapards will battle with Kennedy Mweene’s Sundowns.
After dispatching a South Sudan side via a 3-0 aggregate, Zesco will be hoping that they repeat that feat against the side from Conakry, Guinea.
Zesco United will not be Zambia’s only interest in the CAF Champions League this year.
Egyptian based striker Mayuka is expected to make his CAF Champions League debut for Zamalek against the Cameroon side.
Mayuka, though has played in a continental match [CAF Confederations Cup] before for Buffaloes as a ‘guest player’ together with William Njobvu in 2008 before he started his European adventure, the same way Collins Mbesuma featured for Power Dynamos.
Then there’s TP Mazembe quartet Nathan Sinkala, Given Singuluma, Rainford Kalaba and Kabaso Chongo involvement when they welcome St George.
And finally, there will be a hand shake after the match between Kalengo and out of favour Kennedy Mweene when Leopards and Sundowns clash. It is widely expected that Mweene is leaving Sundowns this June as his contract runs down.
All the best to AC leopards,TP mazembe,zamalerk and zesco united
I will be very happy if kalengo scored in that game
it will be interesting game for kalengo n Mweene. hope the two zambian will ve chance to play in this games. Am wishing Zesco a good preparation n outing during the two games.. let the players work hard to prove themselve.
I hope mwene doesn’t renew his contract wth sundown coz this club z knwn of finishing zambian players, lets hope he finds a team wer he wil hv some game time
Not only Zambian players, but also other African players.
best of luck to all Zambian players who’ll be in action
kalengo can not score against Mweene..
I agree, why would he take a shot at a keeper that is comfortably sitting on the bench.
May the best team win. Mamelodi Sundowns has a great ambition to conquer Africa, well wishes or not, the march to glory remains unhampered.
