SuperSport United will be looking to salvage their Confederations Cup hopes when they host Al Hilal in Group A on Wednesday. These two occupy the bottom slots in the group, with SuperSport fourth, without a point and Al Hilal are third on three points. After three straight losses, SuperSport United can’t afford to drop more points in their remaining group matches. Their problems go deeper though, with the South Africans having scored just once in three games. They did, however end a six-match winless run with a 2-1 away win over Moroka Swallows ahead of this game. five losses in six matches however, still shows SuperSport aren’t in their best shape. They have struggled to replicate their domestic form at the continental stage. In five of their last 10 Confederations Cup matches, SuperSport United failed to score.

Al Hilal Benghazi come into this game on the back of two straight wins. One of those wins was a 2-1 victory over SuperSport United in their last meeting in this group. Al Hilal built on it with a 1-0 away win at Al Tahaddi in their local league. They will go into their second straight away game eying a crucial win in this group. Coming into this game with three wins in five matches will give Al Hilal the confidence that they can down SuperSport at home. Their opening away match in this competition ended in a 2-0 defeat to USM Alger but this should be a manageable opponent.
