Having just renewed hostilities in the Botola Pro this past weekend, Wydad Athletic Club and RS Berkane are seemingly set to put their rivalry to the side for a few hours as they both make their way to Southern Africa to resume their respective CAF campaigns.
Wydad will be looking to get off the foot of Group B in the CAF Champions League when they take on Jwaneng Galaxy on Saturday, while Berkane will be looking to maintain their unbeaten run in Group D when they face Sekhukhune United on Sunday.

It is claimed the Red Castle are set to be the first side to board the plane from Casablanca, from which they will travel to Oudjda, where the Orange Boys will join their league rivals as the plane travels towards Johannesburg.
Before landing in Botswana, however, it is said the aircraft will refuel in the Gabonese capital of Libreville.
From Gabon, it is believed the plane will then make its way to South Africa's economic epicentre, where both north African outfits will get off.
Berkane will then travel to the city of Polokwane, while Wydad will make the 706km journey to the city of Francistown via bus.
