Group C action in the 2024-25 CAF Champions League comes to an end on Saturday with matchday six seeing Egypt’s Al Ahly hosting South Africa’s Orlando Pirates. Both teams have already progressed to the knockouts, with the second-placed Egyptians on ten points hosting the top-placed South Africans, and our prediction is for the game to produce under 2.5 goals.
Al Ahly has 10 points from three wins, one draw, and one loss across their five matches so far. Orlando, meanwhile, has 11 points from three wins and two draws. A draw is enough for the Pirates to maintain their top spot and qualify as group winners, while Al Ahly needs a win to finnish above their visitors.
Al Ahly defeated El Gouna 2-0 at home in the Egypt Premier League on Wednesday to continue leading the domestic league standings. That made it three wins in a row, including a 3-1 win over Stade d’Abidjan in matchday five of this competition, which came after a 1-0 loss at Belouizdad in their only defeat of this Champions League season.
Orlando’s last match saw them win 2-1 at home against Belouizdad to keep their unbeaten Champions League campaign intact. It was their fourth win across five competitive matches, and they also have an edge in the standings after drawing the reverse fixture 0-0.
