It's game one of two in the CAF Confederations Cup as Hearts of Oak host JS Saoura. This is a Play-offs fixture played over two legs and nothing will be decided tonight.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
This field has grass, which is not JS Saoura's usual surface at their own football stadium. When playing on grass JS Saoura have performed like this: Played 19 matches with the output 4 wins, 8 draws and 7 defeats with the goal data 14-21 (scored/conceded).
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 4700 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
