AC Leopard         vs            Rayon Sports

Former Rayon Sports head coach Didier Gomes Da Rosa has tipped the Rwandan champions to proceed to eliminate AC Leopards in the preliminary round of this year’s Caf Champions League.

The two teams faceoff in the first leg on Sunday in the Congo Brazzaville before the return leg seven days later in Kigali and the Frenchman, who quit about a month ago to take over at Cameroonian champions Coton Sport Garoua believes his former team have the chance.

Gomes said that Rayon Sports are a ‘very good and serious team’ and they will qualify to the first round.

 "Seriously Rayon has the potential to qualify. They won the league last season and they signed a few more good players, which only makes it better for them to do well in this competition,” Gomes said on Thursday.

Coton Sport is one of  the teams that received a bye to the first round where they will take on the winner between Le Flambeau of Burundi and Congo’s Les Diables Noirs.
