Pyramids will take on Raja Casablanca

Raja Casablanca and Pyramids will trade tackles in the second leg of their CAF Confederations Cup semifinal on Sunday.

The two sides could not be separated in the first leg, with a goalless draw leaving it all to play for in the return fixture.

Raja Casablanca followed up that continental draw with a 2-0 victory over Difaa El Jadidi in domestic action on Thursday. Soufiane Rahimi and Malongo Ngita scored second-half goals to help the Green Eagles pick up three points.

Pyramids have not been in action since their goalless draw on the continent last Sunday.

A place in the final against either Cotonsport or JS Kabylie, as well as a potential CAF Super Cup appearance, awaits the winner of this tie.

Raja Casablanca vs Pyramids Prediction

Raja Casablanca's success this term has been built on a rock-solid, almost impregnable defense and their backline is likely to come out top on home turf.

Pyramids have enough quality to trouble the hosts, but Raja's superior experience on the big stage could help spur them on to the final.

Prediction: Raja Casablanca 1-0 Pyramids
