**Nothing says "CAF Champions League round 2" like two teams locked in a defensive grind.** Star Sport Academy looking to break through the back line, RS Berkane ready to frustrate them into submission. 🏆

Academy's last five have been a snoozefest—two draws, zero wins—while Berkane at least found a W or two in their stretch. That said, Berkane have also been leaking chances: a 2-2 draw shows they're not exactly Fort Knox. This one could go either way.

Key storylines:

- **RS Berkane's midfield duo** of M. Chouiar and Y. Labhiri will need to control tempo and limit Academy's chances to break through
- Academy hunting an upset but **struggling for goals**—two draws with Medina United FC show they can't finish
- **Y. E. Kaabi and Z. Machach** leading Berkane's attack; expect them to probe for space early

Expected lineups:

- **RS Berkane**: M. Maftah, I. Kandouss, H. Manaout, O. Haddadi, E. Boukhriss, M. Chouiar, Y. Labhiri, O. Lamlioui, Y. Mehri, Y. E. Kaabi, Z. Machach
- **Star Sport Academy**: XI not provided

Prediction:

**RS Berkane 1–0 Star Sport Academy**. Berkane's form edge and attacking depth should be enough to edge past a defensively stubborn but toothless Academy side.
