Jaraaf de Dakar begins its campaign in the group stage of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Cup this Wednesday, November 27. For this first meeting, the Senegalese champions face ASEC Mimosas at the Félix Houphouët-Boigny stadium in Abidjan at 4:00 p.m.
Journey and challenges
ASEC Mimosas, giant of Ivorian football, approaches this match with the ambition to shine on the continental scene. Currently fifth in Ivorian Ligue 1 with 15 points in 10 days, ASEC wants to forget its recent mixed results in the championship by starting this group phase with a victory at home.
For its part, Jaraaf de Dakar has had an excellent start to the season. Provisional leader of the Senegalese championship with 11 points in 5 days, the Medina club has great ambitions on the African scene. Conquering the CAF Cup is the ultimate goal, but this requires a solid performance from this first day.
This duel will also be a great opportunity for the two teams to measure themselves in a very tough Group C.
The keys to the match
Jaraaf will have to rely on its defensive rigor and the experience of its executives to resist the pressure of the Mimosas, used to playing in front of their audience. The Senegalese will also have to be effective offensively against an ASEC team which, although formidable, has shown some flaws in its championship.
On which channels can you watch the match?
African football fans will be able to follow this meeting live on Canal+, BeIN Sports, RTNC, Max 4, as well as on several digital platforms.
A litmus test for Jaraaf
This trip to Abidjan promises to be a real commando mission for Jaraaf, which will have to rely on its tactical discipline and team spirit to hope to bring back a positive result. The fight promises to be tough, but the Jaraaf is ready to take up the challenge.
The meeting is set for this Wednesday, with the backdrop of a battle to write a new page in African football.
