Week two in the CAF Champions League will see Orlando Pirates facing Al Ahly at the Orlando Stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday afternoon. The Buccaneers are in second place in Group C while the Red Devils lead the group standings.
Orlando Pirates marked their first match back in the CAF Champions League with a victory, beating Belouizdad 2-1 on the road at the end of last month.
The Buccaneers have also made a very strong start to their PSL campaign, winning seven in a row from the start of the term, though they saw their win streak ended at the weekend against Stellenbosch.
That defeat halted a three-match winning run at home and was also the first time the Sea Robbers failed to find the back of the net in any competition this season.
Meanwhile, defending champions Al Ahly also made a winning start to their title defence, overcoming Stade d’Abidjan 4-2 at the Cairo International Stadium last week.
The Red Devils played out a rare goalless draw against the National Bank of Egypt in their domestic league over the weekend, though that still extended their unbeaten run to eight across all competitions.
Notably, the visitors have won each of their last four CAF Champions League matches (qualifiers included) and have not tasted defeat in this competition since March 2023.

Our Orlando Pirates vs AL Ahly SC Prediction
Orlando Pirates stormed out the blocks this season, but they saw their momentum halted at the weekend when they looked fatigued and flatfooted against Stellies on their home patch.
Al Ahly also delivered an underwhelming performance in their last outing, but their defence once again remained unbreached, and their record in this competition is unmatched. We feel the visitors will avoid defeat in this one. Our Orlando Pirates vs Al Ahly prediction is Al Ahly draw no bet.
