Azam FC have been drawn in Group B of the 2026/27 CAF Confederation Cup, where they will face Morocco’s AS FAR, Libya’s Al Ahly Tripoli and South Africa’s Durban City FC. The draw took place today, October 28, 2026, in Cairo, Egypt, revealing the path the Chamazi-based club must navigate in their quest for continental success.
The group is expected to be highly competitive, given the clubs’ experience in African competitions. However, Tanzanian football fans may pay particular attention to Fiston Mayele and Allan Okello, who have been linked with Azam’s group opponents, subject to official confirmation of their registration and participation.
Azam FC secured their place in the group stage after eliminating Egypt’s ZED FC with a 1-0 victory in the second leg, thanks to Nado’s 66th-minute goal. Qualification gives the club another opportunity to test its strength against teams with considerable experience in African football.
Among their opponents, AS FAR enter the group with a rich history in Moroccan football, while Al Ahly Tripoli will look to use their experience to compete for qualification to the next round. Durban City FC should not be underestimated either, meaning Azam will need thorough preparation for every match.
