Putting Zliza to the Test in Their Own Backyard, Club Africain Must Perform to Stay in a Good Position in the Standings
The Press — On the heels of their success against USBG, it can be said that Club Africain is starting to show its true face, with a performance that is not yet fully realized, but with players who have generally surpassed themselves. Is a sense of unity beginning to emerge within Faouzi Benzarti's team? On the field, at least, it's quite visible, and the mindset displayed recently in Radès lends more legitimacy to this club team, which must, however, confirm its worth this afternoon in Gabès against ASG. Club Africain hopes to build on its momentum and secure a second consecutive championship victory to stay in touch with the top of the league.
Lucid Up Front, Solid in the Back
What is the state of the team just hours before the match against AS Gabès? Faouzi Benzarti will be able to count on the return of Charfeddine Aoun, who has served his one-match suspension. Saidou Khan has a good chance of starting alongside Zemzmi. Benzarti is likely to stick with the same choices as against USBG, with Sadok Mahmoud as a relay player, while Ait Malek, a hybrid midfielder, and Ghaïth Sghaïer will probably be kept in reserve. There will be no changes in defense, with the quartet of Ali Youssef, Ben Abda, Shili, and Zaâlouni (although the latter may be replaced by Houssem Hassan Romdhane if Faouzi Benzarti so decides).
What About the Attack?
A range of options is available to the technical staff, but Firas Chawat is likely to start up front, with Kinzumbi on the right and Khadhraoui on the left. As for Bassem Srarfi and Fahd Mesmari, their inclusion will depend on the course of the match. The club team will also need to be solid in the back, as ASG is counting on this match to get back on track.
