APR vs Aigles du CongoPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

First preliminary round of the CAF Champions League at the Stade Amahoro in Kigali, with no previous meetings between the two clubs. APR arrive on the back of four wins in their last five outings: 2-1 at home to Vipers, 3-1 away at Al-Haras Al-Jumhuri, 2-0 against Gicumbi and 2-1 at Al Merreikh. The one setback was a heavy one, a 0-5 home defeat by GOR Mahia. JSK come in with two wins, two draws and one defeat: the 2-1 at Don Bosco is their latest result, preceded by a 1-1 at Maniema Union, a 1-0 home win over Simba, a 0-2 loss at TP Mazembe and a goalless home draw with Vita Club. The numbers describe a side that gives little away but scores sparingly, with four goals across those five matches, two of them in the win at Don Bosco. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
