Union Douala currently occupies the 17th position on the classification chart with 17 points whereas Astres alias the Brazilians from Bepanda occupy the 6th position with 15 points. Though not reminiscent of the classical derbies of the yesteryears between Canon and Tonnerre or Union-Caiman, encounters between Union and Astres have proved to be crowd pullers in the past. The encounter is going to be fireworks given that a victory for either team will enable the team move up of the classification table.
Meanwhile, league leaders, Coton Sport will be seeking to consolidate their position at the helm of the classification table when they take on 9th-placed Yong Sport Academy on Saturday in Garoua. In an earlier Day 11 encounter, Tiko took advantage to beat AS Lausanne to leap out from the relegation zone, moving from the 13th to the 11th position just above the relegation line thereby plunging Sable in the red zone.
