Al Hilal Omdurman vs TP Mazembe Prediction: The Ravens stand no chance against their opponent

Sudanese-based football team Al Hilal Omdurman will face off against TP Mazembe in a must-win game at the Stade Cheikha Boidiya Stadium on Sunday. The hosts, whose country have been plunged into a real human tragedy since April 20233, now ply their trade in the Mauritanian league. They agreed with the Mauritania FA to allow them to join their club to keep for their continental games. 

Al Hilal Omdurman (Sudan)

The Sudanese giant head here following their excellent performance on the road against Young Africans. Al Hilal, who have been pretty decent in recent games, stunned their opponent on their home turf, scoring twice to secure the maximum points. 

The Blues are on a run of eighteen matches without defeat in all competitions since their failure in Tunis (1-0 last March against Espérance).

Al Hilal Omdurman have an experienced coach who understands this tournament well. The Blue Wave hardly lose at home, even though this game will be played in Mauritania. 

TP Mazembe (Congo)

The Ravens began their continental journey with a toothless stalemate against MC Alger in front of their home supporters. TP Mazembe dominated the game but lacked the bite in front of goal. Both teams didn’t create enough chances, and the guests were the beneficiary of this result. 

TP Mazembe are the third most successful team in the CAF Champions League, as they booked their ticket to this round after knocking out Red Arrows in the qualifying round. 

The Ravens, who found themselves in one of the most challenging situations this season after being banned by FIFA, will play this game without four key players. They have not been able to sign players this season, and few of their players have left. Regardless, they have managed to win five consecutive games in the league. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous seven meetings, Al Hilal Omdurman have won three times while TP Mazembe have managed two wins and two games ending in a deadlock. 

TP Mazembe will be very careful in this group, especially after failing to win on their ground. They’ll face off against a side with a decent team and a coach with pedigree. Coach Florent Ibenga won this tournament in his days at RSB Berkane, and with just experience, I expect him to set up a decent squad for this matchup. I’m fully confident that Al Hilal Omdurman will secure all the points here for 1.89.

I also think they’ll score before the break for 2.04.

This game might end in a (2-0) victory for the hosts.

Good luck!
