Yanga could secure a ticket to the quarter-finals of the CAF Confederations Cup if they win the next two matches at home
March 08th Yanga will be at the Benjamin Mkapa stadium to face Real Bamako and again to the same stadium to face US Monastir on March 19th
At second place in group D with four points behind US Monastir with seven points, if Yanga wins the next two matches, will reach 10 points
When Yanga face Real Bamako on March 08th, TP Mazembe will be in Tunisia to face Monastir, these are the matches that can decide the fate of the group sooner or later
TP Mazembe can reach 12 points if they win all three remaining matches, two matches against Monastir and Real Bamako are played away. The final match of the group will be against Yanga on April 02 in DR Congo
It is clear that if Mazembe fail to win against Monastir who beat them 2-0 in the first game played in DR Congo, they will make it easier for Yanga because if they lose then Yanga will qualify for the Quarter final if they win their two matches that will be played at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium
But also even if Mazembe gets a draw, they will be able to reach 10 points if they win the remaining two matches and one of those matches is against Yanga which is already ahead due to the H2H record
Mathematically you can say that all the teams still have a chance to reach the quarter finals but Monastir and Yanga have a bigger chance because they have two matches left at home while TP Mazembe and Real Bamako each have one match left at home
Here is the importance of the six points of the two matches that will be played at Benjamin Mkapa stadium as they can be enough to get Yanga to the quarter finals
