Singida Black Stars FC vs Stellenbosch FC
JOHANNESBURG (Interstat) — South Africa’s Stellenbosch FC looks to continue its unbeaten run in continental play when it visits Tanzania’s Singida Black Stars FC in a CAF Confederation Cup group stage match Sunday.
The matchup at the yet-to-be-determined Tanzanian venue pits a Stellenbosch side buoyed by a recent victory against a Singida club seeking to rebound from a defeat.
Stellenbosch (1-0-1) enters the contest following a 1-0 home win over Congo’s AS Otoho last Sunday. That result, combined with a scoreless draw at Angola’s FC 15 de Agosto de Akonibe in October, has the South African club well-positioned early in the group phase.
Conversely, Singida Black Stars FC (1-1-1) is coming off a 2-0 road loss to Algeria’s CR Belouizdad last Saturday. The Tanzanian outfit had previously earned a 3-1 home victory over Burundi’s Flambeau du Centre FC after a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture.
According to the Interstat game simulator, Stellenbosch is projected to secure a narrow 1-0 victory. A win for the visitors would solidify their standing atop the group, while Singida aims to leverage its home-field advantage to secure a crucial result and get its campaign back on track.
