Al Hilal Omdurman Form

Al Hilal have made a strong start to their continental campaign under former Orlando Pirates coach Josef Zinnbauer.

The Sudanese champions eliminated Burundi's Aigle Noir in the first preliminary round, winning 2-0 away and 1-0 in the return leg to progress 3-0 on aggregate.

They followed those results with another away victory against Sidama Bunna, scoring twice without reply at Dire Dawa Stadium.

Zinnbauer was pleased with the first-leg result but acknowledged that his team needed to improve their second-half performance.

Sidama Bunna Form

Sidama Bunna reached the second preliminary round after eliminating Chad's Aiglons.

The Ethiopian champions drew the opening leg 0-0 before securing a 3-0 home victory to advance on aggregate.

Their domestic campaign has been less encouraging recently, with a 1-0 defeat against Ethiopia Nigd Bank on 11 October followed by the 2-0 loss to Al Hilal.

Sidama Bunna have now suffered consecutive defeats without scoring and face a difficult task against more experienced continental opponents.

Verdict

Al Hilal Omdurman v Sidama Bunna

Al Hilal have been convincing in qualifying, winning all three matches without conceding. They should ease to another win at home.
