CAF Champions League: Preview - Horoya AC vs Medeama SC


 Horoya AC will welcome Ghanaian champions Medeama SC at the Lansana Conte Stadium in Conakry for the second round second leg encounter of the CAF Champions League.


The African giants are on the brink of Champions League exit after losing 3-1 in the first leg encounter at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium two weeks ago and will be up and doing to ensure they salvage the victory that will place them in-situ in the continental club showpiece.


The game is free to spectator which was announced days ago to give the homes side a 12th man on the pitch to be able to eliminate Medeama SC.


Horoya AC have been one of the heavy spenders in the Africa game and will be poised to make it happen to correlate their investment as the next stage will be the money zone which they cannot afford to miss it. 


The General Lansana Conte Sports Stadium has given Horoya AC a smooth breathing to home games and this afternoon's encounter will be one of the games Horoya AC will be needing that much to ensure qualification.


It is with this much that Medeama SC will be into this game with so much caution having giving Horoya AC a goal late in the first leg encounter to give them a chance of qualifying. 


The Yellow and Mauve's should be aware of games of this kind in Africa that a 3-1 win in the first leg is no more a guarantee of qualification to the next round of games.


The Ghanaian Champions have shown a diversifying approach in their games this season in the CAF Champions League where they proved a resilient customer against Remo Stars in Nigeria.


However, Horoya AC is head and shoulders above the Nigerians in Africa which will take a different dimension into the game for Medeama SC. 


Experienced gaffer Evans Augustine Adotey, having gone through the Africa game over the years, should be au fait with how the home side will approach this game.


It will be a long afternoon for Medeama SC. As to how they can stand the test of time against an experienced Horoya AC in a game of such, is another story to unfold.


The game kicks off at exactly 4 PM.
