The three times CAF Champions League winner head into this round after defeating ASN Nigelec of Niger in the qualifying stage. The Green Eagles were quarter-finalists last season following the defeat against Al Ahly.
Raja Casablanca's unbeaten run ended in the league when they were overwhelmed by Olympique Safi on the road. They will host the Uganda side in the 60,000-capacity Mohamed V Stadium in front of their crazy football lovers tomorrow.
Raja Casablanca have some terrific players that can cause any side problems in this tournament, and we are hopeful they will at least make the top four.
Vipers SC (Uganda)
Viper SC will grace the CAF Champions League group stage for the first time in their history. They secured the ticket after their resilience performance against a strong TP Mazembe side in the qualifying round. Vipers SC are third in the Uganda Premier League with five points behind Kampala City, having won eight, drawn three and lost three times since the commencement of the season.
Vipers SC are known for their defensive abilities, conceding just five goals across their league campaign.
Expert Betting Tips
Raja Casablanca have been inconsistent in the league this season but have improved since the appointment of Tunisian coach Mondher Kebaier. On the other hand, Vipers SC haven’t been bad, though they have lost three times on the road this season. The Moroccan league is very competitive, and considering both sides' quality, bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.70.
We expect Raja Casablanca to secure a halftime victory here for 1.80.
The home side must score more than enough in this competition as winning on the road isn’t guaranteed; bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 2.01.
Good luck!
