When Confederation Cup games start in Kenya
The CAF Confederation Cup is Africa’s second club competition, for national cup winners and the clubs placed just below the champions in the stronger leagues. Ties run from the preliminary rounds in autumn to the final in spring.
Kick-off follows the home club’s time zone. Morocco and Algeria are two hours behind Nairobi this winter, Ghana three hours behind, and Egypt and South Africa one hour behind, so a 19:00 local start reads anywhere from 20:00 to 22:00 EAT.
The early rounds are two-legged knockout ties. A club that wins its home leg 2-0 goes into the return game with a cushion, and the second-leg prices reflect it.
Results
Confederation Cup scores leg by leg
Played CAF Confederation Cup fixtures move down to the most recent scores, one row per leg. Read a tie as one 180-minute contest: the aggregate decides it, and the second-leg prices follow the first-leg score.
The group stage follows the draw, with each group’s games added to the list as they are scheduled. Africa’s top club competition has its own list on the CAF Champions League fixtures page, and Kenyan league games are on the KPL fixtures list.
