Group Stage Tips for CAF CCL
- Back home teams in North African derbies — The travel disadvantage for visiting teams from sub-Saharan Africa to North Africa is significant
- Over 2.5 goals in West African group stage clashes — West African clubs tend to play open, attacking football
- Back North African clubs away in East Africa — Egyptian and Moroccan clubs typically handle away games in East Africa better than expected
