Claim Your Welcome Bonus!Plateau United (Nigeria)
United Club wrapped up last season in second place after picking up seventy points in thirty-nine games. They were one of the best attacking teams in the league, with fifty-one goals in that period. They missed out on the title after their defeat to the champions weeks before the season ended.
They maintained an incredible (3-2) aggregate score over AS Stade Mandji from Gabon.
Plateau United were knocked out by Simba FC's last two seasons in the first round of the competition and will be cautious not to repeat such.
Esperance Tunis (Tunisia)
The visitors secured their 32nd Tunisian Professional League title last season after picking up twenty-four points in ten games. They have won the CAF title four times, the most recent in 2019. They were knocked out by Algerian side ES Setif in the competition's quarter-finals last season.
Esperance Tunis head into this game as the favourite and will be hopeful of winning in Nigeria.
