Tomorrow, November 25, Simba will face Asec Mimosas in the first game of the group stage of the CAF Champions League (CAF CL)
Simba will go into the game knowing that all three points must stay at home to start the campaign in search of the semi-finals
This is the second time Asec come to face Simba in the CAF competition in two seasons
In the 2021/22 season, the teams met at the group stage of the Confederations Cup (CAF CC) with Simba emerging with a 3-1 victory in the game played at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium
Simba's Acting Head Coach Daniel Cadena has said that he has monitored Asec and identified their strengths and weaknesses, so they go into the game knowing what they have to do to emerge victorious
"We are going to a difficult and good game but our goal is to see that we start well for our group, the main thing that I ask our fans to come to the field to support us because that is a weapon to give the players strength to fight more"
"Asec is a team with a good balance starting from the area of defense and attack, so we must prepare the best way to deal with them properly, we need that game with the aim of restoring respect to our fans who started to lose hope," said Cadena< /em>
In the Premier League of Ivory Coast 'Ligue 1', Asec have played 11 matches in which they have won seven, drawn one and lost three, being in second place with 22 points, the offensive line scoring 18 goals and their defender allowing seven< /p>
Asec does not have a star to deal with as it plays more as a team, something that the Simba players should be careful not to make mistakes that could benefit Asec
