Berekum Chelsea is expected to be in a tough group with at least two of the five qualified North African teams ahead of today’s draw for the group stage of the CAF Champions league in Cairo.Chelsea is just one of three clubs from sub Saharan Africa to make the last eight for the league stage of the Champions league with Nigerian side Sunshine Stars and three time winners TP Mazembe from the DR Congo.Record six time champions Ahly lead a strong representation of North African clubs that also include five time champions and rivals Zamalek, reigning champions Esperance and Étoile Sahel both from Tunisia and new boys ASO Chlef from Algeria.Chelsea hope to have a memorable campaign in the group stage for the first time in the club’s history and International Relations Director Joe Addo is confident experiences from beating giants Raja Casablanca and Cotton Sport is good motivation to play any team.“Most of these teams are former champions and I wouldn’t underrate any team but with how far we have come in the tournament I strongly believe we can make it”. He told JOY Sports“There is nothing that will stop us from doing what we have set our eyes on”.
