CAF Champions League: latest news, fixtures and how to follow

The CAF Champions League is where Africa’s best clubs meet, and every season brings drama, big goals and surprise winners. If you follow African club football, this is the tag page you’ll want bookmarked. We gather match reports, team news, injury updates and everything that matters to fans across the continent.

Expect weekly updates on fixtures, team line-ups and quick match summaries you can read in under a minute. We focus on the action that changes tables and title races: late goals, red cards, tactical switches and the coaches who make the difference. You’ll find previews before big games and short recaps after full-time so you don’t miss the key moments.

What to watch this season

Keep an eye on group standings and knockout pairings — they decide which teams make the business end of the competition. Watch for teams that build momentum in the group stage: they often turn into tournament dark horses. Also look for clubs with strong home records; travel and pitch conditions can swing ties in Africa more than in other competitions.

Player form matters here. A hot striker can carry a club deep into the tournament, while a goalkeeper in form can steal a knockout tie. We highlight players who are making headlines and those who might be on the move in the next transfer window.

How to follow matches and get live info

Broadcast rights differ by country, so check local sports channels for live coverage. CAF often lists official broadcasters and streaming partners — follow those links to avoid unofficial streams. Clubs also use social media to post line-ups, key moments and post-match reactions. For live updates on the go, follow score apps or our live blog updates on matchdays.

Want alerts? Sign up for match reminders and short push updates so you get scores and major events without sifting through long articles. We also publish quick tactical notes after tough ties: what worked, what failed, and which manager made the smart call.

If you’re new to the competition, start by watching knockout ties — they show the drama best. For regular viewers, tracking group-stage stats helps predict who’ll reach the final rounds. We bring context, so you understand why a result matters for a club’s season, continental ranking or domestic momentum.
