Star Sport Academy will meet RSB Berkane for the first time in the second preliminary round of the CAF Champions League. Star Sport Academy have drawn four of their last five home games, while RSB Berkane, last season’s semi-finalists, are seen as superior opponents. Based on current form and past results, RSB Berkane are tipped to win without conceding, as they aim to better last year’s campaign and reach the final.

Star Sport Academy have drawn four of their last five at home and RSB Berkane are of a different class. I expect the visitors to win to nil.

Key Stats - Star Sport Four Draws at Home


  • Star Sport Academy have drawn 4 of their last 5 home fixtures. 
  • Star Sport Academy have scored 6 goals in 5 home matches.
  • Star Sport Academy have conceded 4 goals in 5 home games.
  • RSB Berkane have won 2 of their last 5 away fixtures.
  • RSB Berkane have scored 6 goals in 5 away games.
  • RSB Berkane have conceded 3 goals in 5 away matches.

First-Ever Meeting


Star Sport Academy and RSB Berkane will meet for the first time in a competitive match. 

Star Sport Academy Draws Galore at Home


Star Sport Academy edged Medina United on the away goals rule in the second leg of their CAF Champions League first preliminary round match recently, drawing 1-1 after the opening leg was a 0-0 draw. 

The Star Boys have registered two victories in their last five fixtures, with three draws. They scored nine goals and conceded three. 

The team from Sierra Leone have won one of their last five home matches, with four draws. They scored six goals and conceded four. 

Star Sport Academy will have to produce a clinical performance to get the result in the opening leg of their second preliminary round encounter against RSB Berkane, as they have drawn five of their last six home games. 

RSB Berkane too much Class


RSB Berkane had a solid campaign in the previous edition of the CAF Champions League, reaching the semi-finals of the competition, losing 2-1 on aggregate to AS FAR Rabat. 

RSB have secured two victories in their last five fixtures, with three draws. They scored seven goals and conceded three. 

The Orange Boys have won two of their last five games, with one defeat and two draws. They scored six goals and conceded three.

RSB Berkane will look to go one better and reach the final of this season's competition and will fancy their chances of coming out on top against Star Sport Academy in the first leg of their second preliminary round match.
