Raja Casablanca host El Kanemi Warriors on Friday in the second leg of their CAF Confederation Cup second preliminary round tie, with the sides level at 2-2 after the first leg in Nigeria.
El-Kanemi took the lead in the 6th minute at Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne on Sunday 18 October, a venue they borrowed because their Maiduguri base was not available. Mohammad Abu Zrayq equalised for Raja in the 23rd minute, and Mathias Oyewusi put the Moroccan side 2-1 ahead in the 61st.
Nnamdi Mejuobi levelled for the Nigerian side in the 82nd minute. Raja finished the game with 10 men after Ishak Zidani was sent off late on.
The return leg will decide who reaches the group stage. Here is everything you need to follow the second leg.

Raja have no published ticket prices or sales points for the second leg in the information available. Fans should rely only on the club’s official channels and avoid unverified sellers.
How the tie stands at half-time
The away-goals rule applies in the qualifying rounds, and it favours Raja because they scored two goals in Nigeria.
Raja go through with a win, a 0-0 draw or a 1-1 draw. El-Kanemi need to win, or to draw with at least three goals each. A 2-2 draw would leave everything level, including away goals, and send the tie to penalties.
