Head to Head


This is the first ever meeting between these two clubs.

Stellenbosch Form & Team News


Stellies have played five cup matches this season and have won all of them. They beat Nsingizini Hotspurs to reach this stage of the CAF Confederations Cup. 

This season kicked off with a 3-1 home win over TS Galaxy in the MTN8 and a two wins vs Nsingizini Hotspurs (3-0 away and 5-0 at home). A 1-0 win over Mamelodi Sundowns followed in the MTN8 semi-final first leg. 

Their last match saw a 1-0 home win over Sundowns to progress 2-0 on aggregate to the MTN8 final. 

Stellenbosch sold striker Iqraam Rayners but have signed Lehlohonolo Mojela and Ashley Cupido as replacements. Wingers Anicet Oura and Antonio Van Wyk have also departed the club. 

Defender Ismail Toure is back in contention after a transfer fell through. Thabo Maloisane could move to right back after captain Deano Van Rooyen joined Orlando Pirates.

Vita Club Form & Team News


Congolese giants AS Vita Club have not played a competitive match since May. They finished fifth in DRC’s Ligue 1 table. 

A 13-match unbeaten run was ended by a 2-1 home loss to rivals TP Mazembe. Their next seven matches yielded just two wins. 

A 3-0 loss at TP Mazembe preceded a 0-0 draw at Saint Eloi Lupopo. On the final day, they lost 1-0 at home to Maniema Union. 

Coach Abdeslam Ouaddou will lean heavily on newly signed striker Boubacar Traoré.

French defender Glen Matondo is another high-profile addition in the off-season.

Verdict

I'm backing a home victory to zero for Stellenbosch.
