On September 21, 2025, the CAF Champions League will see ASK Kara from Togo face Berkane from Morocco in the first leg of the qualifiers. The match will kick off at 17:00 Central European Time. Here’s a look at both teams’ attacking capabilities in this upcoming game.
ASK Kara
ASK Kara represents Togo and is the current national champion. After a five-year wait, they reclaimed the title last year, finishing just two points ahead of their nearest rival. The team is known for their exciting style of play, but their recent form is uncertain, as the Togolese league concluded in June and hasn’t restarted yet. This match will mark Kara’s first official game of the new season and is their debut in international competition.
Berkane
Berkane has a strong reputation on the African football scene. They are the defending champions of Morocco and have substantial experience internationally. Last season, they won the CAF Confederation Cup by defeating Tanzania’s Simba in the final. The new season began with two convincing victories, placing Berkane at the top of the league with six points and a goal difference of 6-1. Their excellent form makes them the favorites in this match.

ASK Kara vs Berkane match prediction
Berkane enters this match as the clear favorite, having already gained momentum in their national league and displayed consistent performances. Their success in last year’s CAF Confederation Cup further highlights their quality. In contrast, ASK Kara comes into the game without match experience, making this a significant challenge for the Togo champions. We expect an open and attacking game from both teams. A bet on over 2.5 goals seems promising, with odds of 1.53.
