Head to Head – Durban City Won First Leg

These clubs met for the first time last weekend.

Durban City won 3-1 at home in the first leg of this tie.

Port Louis Form – Sixth Place League Finish Last Term

AS Port-Louis booked their place in the 2026/27 CAF Confederation Cup by winning the Mauritian domestic cup competition. They finished sixth in the league with just 24 points in 18 matches.

They drew Jwaneng Galaxy in the first round of qualifying for this competition. A 1-1 home draw was followed by a fine 1-0 away win to progress.

Last weekend, they lost 3-1 vs Durban City in the first league. Port Louis pulled a goal back at 2-1 down but conceded a damaging last-minute third goal.

Durban City Form – League Struggles, CAF Victories

Durban City have tasted victory just once in 16 league matches. In continental action, they have won all three matches this season.

A 2-0 win away at Kruger United ended an 11-match winless PSL run. A 0-0 home draw vs Stellenbosch was followed by two wins vs Rukinzo in the first CAF Confederations Cup qualifying round.

A 2-0 loss at Orlando Pirates preceded a 1-1 draw at Milford. After appointing Eric Tinkler, they lost 2-1 at home to AmaZulu before a 3-1 home win over Port Louis last Sunday in their CAF first leg.

Predicted Lineups & Team News

Port Louis:

Port Louis coach Etienne Liva Rasoanaivo will pick his best XI in Mauritius.

A 2-0 win would be enough to progress to the next round.

Durban City (4-3-3): Asare; Shandu, Ncanana, Mkhize, Doumbia; Jurgens, Sanger, Poggenpoel; Maseko, Lwamba, Domingo.

Malian left back Alou Doumbia made his first start for the club in the first leg. He could start in preference to John Mokone.

Haashim Domingo could keep his place in a wide role after scoring last week. Samkelo Maseko will hope for a recall in this one.

Verdict

Port Louis v Durban City

I see both sides scoring in Mauritius as Durban City win the second leg.
