Which Team is Most Likely to Win the CAF Confederation Cup?

After completing the competition’s qualifying round in November, the CAF Confederation Cup group stage is set to commence on February 12 with 16 teams. These teams are drawn into four groups of four teams.

At this stage in the competition, it can be challenging to say which team will become the Confederation Cup Champions. However, we can still point out a few teams most likely to win this tournament.

With the defending champion, RS Berkane and the tournament’s most successful team CS Sfaxien eliminated in the play-off round; TP Mazembe could go on to win the CAF Confederation Cup.

TP Mazembe, who are the 2016 and 2017 edition winner, would face Tunisian side US Monastir, who have had just one appearance (2020/2021) in the competition in Group D.

They will also face Tanzanian club Young African SC and Malian club Real Bamako in the Group. Winning this group will be the first task for the Congolese club, and they undoubtedly have what it takes.

Asides from Sfaxien, who have won the tournament thrice, the Ravens and three other clubs have won this competition twice. These three other teams are no longer in the competition, leaving TP Mazembe with the chance of equalling Sfaxien’s record of the most Confederation Cup titles.

2015 winner, AS FAR FC, could also win their second Confederation Cup title this year. The Moroccan side, who have made five appearances in this tournament, will battle two Egyptian teams, Future FC and Pyramids FC, in Group C. They will also play Togolese ASKO Kara in the group.

Finishing at the top of this group would be a massive boost to their title challenge.

Moroccan teams like this competition, recording the highest number of victories (7 titles). AS FAR FC might want to extend this number further.

How Did We Choose our CAF Confederation Cup Predictions?

Several factors influence our CAF Confederation Cup predictions, including previous winners, fixtures, statistics, favourites, etc. Let’s briefly analyse each of these factors;

Previous Winners

Making your predictions requires considering previous winners, usually considered the favourite to be the tournament’s champion.

CS Sfaxien have won this tournament thrice, while Etoile du Sahel, Raja Casablanca, TP Mazembe and RS Berkane have won twice. Unfortunately, all of these teams except TP Mazembe are currently not in the tournament.

So, Congolese side TP Mazembe and 2005 winner AS FAR are two previous winners in the CAF Confederation Cup Group stage.

Since they’ve won the cup before, they understand what this tournament entails and what it takes to win. So you might need to take note of these teams before making your football predictions.

Fixtures

Fixtures are crucial in making CAF Confederation Cup predictions. With the schedule of games out and teams already grouped – knowing who they play against, it becomes easier to predict teams that are likely to top the group and advance and those that wouldn’t make it to the quarterfinals.

The team’s participation in other competitions must also be considered because it may impact their performance and delivery. For instance, it might be difficult for a team who just finished a domestic league game with little rest time to perform to its best capacity a few days later in the Confederation Cup.

Therefore, you must follow these teams closely to know their match schedule before betting on them.

Statistics

Statistics are essential aspects that you cannot ignore in the betting world. When you have been able to gather information on the team you want to bet on, your predictions become more reliable.

The result of head-to-head encounters between teams and the number of goals scored on home or Away turf are a few statistics examples bettors should take note of. You should also consider the availability of the team’s leading scorer, the number of bookings etc.,

Statistics is a bettor’s main tool, so ensure you get them to help you make the most of your predictions.

Groups

Keeping up with teams in each group can help you understand their stance, particularly when the competition’s final group games approach.

For instance, some teams might have sealed their qualification for the knockout stage after a few group games, deciding to rest players for the remaining games. When making your CAF Confederation Cup predictions, you must find out if the players brought on can impact the team’s performance like their other teammates.

Also, you must watch out for teams in the group stage that require the final match to determine who goes through. Note these teams as they tend to compete hard to advance to the knockout round.

Standings

The CAF Confederation Cup doesn’t have a table but the various groups. The first and second-placed teams are the teams that advance to the knockout phase.

After teams have been paired in the knockout phases, previous performances from the group stage table can help your predictions, as you already know how the teams have performed so far.

Also, you can look out for the teams’ performances in their various domestic leagues. Check their positions on the log and how they’ve been fairing through the season.

Although the leagues and Confederation Cup are different, their position in their various domestic leagues can be helpful in your predictions.

Favourites

Bettors can easily spot favourites on betting sites by looking at the odds for each team. The favourite team gets the smaller odds between both teams.

The favourite team to win the competition will also get the smallest odds in the predictions of the outright winner.

The difference in both teams that play a game is usually based on the quality the team poses or the quality of players they have at their disposal.

When you can differentiate this, you’ll be able to make your favourite predictions. For instance, in a tie between TP Mazembe and ASKO Kara, you’d expect the Congolese team to beat the Togolese side as they possess more quality players and have more experience in the competition, hence are favourites in this case.
